Python 3.x status?

[Robert Terzi]

Any updates on a newer Python 3.x for Cygwin?

On Dec 23rd, 2023, Marco Atzeri mentioned in an announcement email[0]:

"Python 3.12 will be in the near future introduced and we will skip 3.10 and 3.11."

That plan was also mentioned in the Feb 29th 2024 announcement[1] from Marco Atzeri, where the test release of Python 3.9.18 was removed.

(The problem with 3.9.18 might have been related to "pip install occasionally hangs" [2].

It looks like Python 3.9.16-1 is still the most current release.

Have I missed something, or can we get a status update?

Thanks!
