As someone who has ported Python 3 to another "less commonly used" system (RISC OS) I just do semi-regular updates rather than trying to keep it it totally up to date with "main".
I have some vague recollection of there being talk about a "second tier" of systems where there is at least a maintainer and build bot, but I'm not sure what, it anything, came from that.
Nothing as of yet. People mentioned clarifying and cleaning up how we define platform support, but no one has taken the time to try and tackle that issue. -Brett

Hi. I have an Alpha/OSF machine up and running. It is little slow, but it works ok.
I would like to run Python3 on it.

Yes? No? Maybe?
I can possibly provide ongoing "support" (I don't expect it will be much) and a buildbot (if really required), if I can get it working a bit more, if this is approved, etc. I haven't looked It is difficult to maintain support for less commonly used systems. If you maintain it personally (like using a cron) and look at the results over time, you could see the difficulty in maintaining the support.
Personally, my vote is a -1 here. In the PR, another core-dev, Ronald had commented that support for explicitly removed a few years ago.
