Hello TC members,

Python 3.8 is available in Ubuntu Bionic now and while I understand it's too late to enable voting py38 unit tests for ussuri, I'd like to at least enable non-voting py38 unit tests. This email is seeking approval and direction from the TC to move forward with enabling non-voting py38 tests.

For some further background: The next release of Ubuntu, Focal (20.04) LTS, is scheduled to release in April 2020. Python 3.8 will be the default in the Focal release, so I'm hopeful that non-voting unit tests will help close some of the gap.

I have a review here for the zuul project template enablement for ussuri:

Also should this be updated considering py38 would be non-voting?

Thanks,

Corey
