Maintenance releases for the 3.8 series will continue at regular bi-monthly
intervals, with 3.8.7 planned for mid-November 2020.
What’s new?
The Python 3.8 series is the newest feature release of the Python language, and
it contains many new features and optimizations. See the “What’s New in Python
3.8 <https://docs.python.org/3.8/whatsnew/3.8.html>” document for more
information about features included in the 3.8 series.
Python 3.8 is becoming more stable. Our bugfix releases are becoming smaller as
we progress. This one contains 122 changes, less than two thirds of the
previous average for a new release. Detailed information about all changes made
in version 3.8.6 specifically can be found in its change log
<https://docs.python.org/release/3.8.6/whatsnew/changelog.html#python-3-8-6>.
Note that compared to 3.8.5 this release also contains all changes present in
3.8.6rc1.
We hope you enjoy Python 3.8!
