So we can have Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 and finally 3.14 a.k.a Pi-thon
What a lovely idea. There's good precedent for this: $ tex This is TeX, Version 3.14159265 $ mf This is METAFONT, Version 2.7182818 (TeX Live 2019) (preloaded base=mf) Aside: Each new version of TeX and METAFONT gets an additional decimal digit of precision. For more information see Don Knuth's announcement: The Future of TeX and Metafont: http://tug.org/TUGboat/tb11-4/tb30knut.pdf Perhaps we could release Python 3.14 on 14 March, as in https://www.piday.org/. Once again João, thank you for your lovely idea. -- Jonathan
