Thus, tradition would seem to exclude Unicode 11.0.0 from landing so late in 3.7's release cycle. That said, the update is highly unlikely to break anything. It's up to Ned.
I'd hate for 3.7 to fall behind in the emoji race :)
The Python community _is_ meant to be inclusive, and we should support
the addition of ginger emoijs. :-)
Seriously, there are some important additions that will, no doubt, appear in
platforms over the lifetime of 3.7 and the risk is very low. Thanks for
pinging about it.
