Drop older Python support #1326

Open albertz opened 1 year ago

albertz commented 1 year ago

Via #487, we are now supporting Python >=3.7.

Do we want to bump this and require Python >=3.8 or later? See also the Python feature list in #487.

Similarly, Python >=3.8 is now required for i6_core: https://github.com/rwth-i6/i6_core/pull/409, https://github.com/rwth-i6/i6_core/issues/408

Same discussion for Python >=3.8 for i6_models: https://github.com/rwth-i6/i6_models/pull/11

I would say at least 3.8. Ubuntu 22 defaults to 3.10, so maybe move to 3.10?!

3.8 is ok (as it's the default for ubuntu 20.04). Anything higher I would delay for now until we (Apptek) have firmly tested our new ubuntu 22.04 images. Thanks!
