Milestone
Description
Python 3.6 is already on security patches only - no bug fixes - with an end-of-life in December 2021 (https://endoflife.date/python)
There are already two work-arounds to support Python 3.6 relating to:
dict
not being ordered at 3.6- no
re.Pattern
at 3.6
Also:
- support for Python 3.6 has been dropped from
numpy
1.20
I'm inclined to also drop support for 3.6 sooner than the end of the year.
This issue is inexorably linked to NCAS-CMS/cfdm#139, in which it has been decided to drop python 3.6 sooner than the end-of-life date, which means in practice that v3.9.0 will be the last cf release to support Python 3.6
