v45 is scheduled to be released in less than a week. Maybe best to aim for that straight away?
Cc @nileshpatra via https://github.com/python-babel/babel/issues/1059#issuecomment-1979589995 – would it be useful for e.g. Debian that there'd be a Babel version that uses CLDR 44, even if CLDR 45 is released soon? That said, the next version of Babel will not officially support Python 3.7 anymore; is that an issue?

I am not sure if I understand that question. Currently CLDR version in Debian is 44 - which is what we need. It probably will be upgraded to 45 at some point.

No problem.

Right, so I think it'll be a good idea to release a version of Babel that basically just bumps up to CLDR 44, just so that version can be easily shipped with the version of Debian that targets CLDR 44.
It probably will be upgraded to 45 at some point.
As far as I understand Debian's stability/release process, that might not be in the immediate cards as soon as 45 is released, though? :)

I apologise if I wasn't clear w/ my bug report earlier. Babel is doing fine in debian stable release (which happens roughly every 1.5-2 years) and has cldr version 41.
The cldr version is 44 in current unstable/testing which will be the next stable release around an year from now. cldr maybe updated to 45 in a few months or so since there's still an year in the next Debian stable release. As such there's no set target yet. If you plan to upgrade to 45, you could do so -- I'll apply the relevant patches.
CLDR v44 has been released a while ago. Are there any plans to include it in babel?
