On behalf of the Python development community and the Python 3.4
and Python 3.5 release teams, I'm pleased to announce the
availability of Python 3.4.6rc1 and Python 3.5.6rc1.<br>
<br>
Python 3.4 is now in "security fixes only" mode. This is the
final stage of support for Python 3.4. Python 3.4 now only
receives security fixes, not bug fixes, and Python 3.4 releases
are source code only--no more official binary installers will be
produced.<br>
<br>
Python 3.5 is still in active "bug fix" mode. Python 3.5.3rc1
contains many incremental improvements over Python 3.5.2.<br>
<br>
Both these releases are "release candidates". They should not be
considered the final releases, although the final releases should
contain only minor differences. Python users are encouraged to
test with these releases and report any problems they encounter.<br>
<br>
<br>
You can find Python 3.4.6rc1 here:<br>

<br>
Python 3.4.6 final and Python 3.5.3 final are both scheduled for
release on January 16th, 2017.<br>
<br>
<br>
Happy New Year,<br>
