Hi,

This is very nice, though, IMO, it's too late. Bookworm was released 
with OpenStack Zed, to which I already added Python 3.11 support (if you 
guys have some patches to add on top, let me know, but as much as I 
know, it was already functional).

So now, the current plan is to ... test on py3.11. Yeah, but from the 
Debian perspective, we're already on Python 3.12. The RC1 is already in 
Debian Experimental, and I expect 3.12 to reach Unstable by the end of 
this year. Once again, I'll be the sole person that will experimenting 
all the troubles. It's been YEARS like this. It's probably time to 
address it, no?

I'd really love it, if we could find a solution so that I stop to be the 
only person getting the shit in this world. :)

What would be awesome, would be to run Debian Unstable, with the latest 
interpreter, as non-voting jobs.

Your thoughts?

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
