"""
3.3 Lifespan

3.3 will receive bugfix updates approximately every 4-6 months until
one release after the release of 3.4.0 final. After that, security
updates (source only) will be released until 5 years after the release
of 3.3.0 final, which will be September 2017.
"""

I am not a native english speaker, but I guess the intention is to do
a final bugfix release for 3.3 after 3.4.0 is out, before moving 3.3
to "security fixes only". Could you possibly clarify the wording in
the PEP?.

Sorry if I am being a pain :).
