Drop Python 3.6 (and 3.7?) support

Opened this issue · 0 comments

The ecosystem of major packages (numpy, scipy, pandas, matplotlib etc.) follow https://numpy.org/neps/nep-0029-deprecation_policy.html.

According to NEP29:

  • On Jun 23, 2020 drop support for Python 3.6 (initially released on Dec 23, 2016)
  • On Dec 26, 2021 drop support for Python 3.7 (initially released on Jun 27, 2018)

Therefore we could argue we can safely follow those key packages and drop Python 3.6 support, and perhaps also 3.7 at the same time (if we do this later in Q4 2021).
