Serhiy and you suggest Python 3.12 and I agree with it. Thank you for your reply. > There have an another question. There have many C API defined under > PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN, for example: _PyArg_Parse_SizeT(). > Could we remove or merge them after making PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN not mandatory? They are part of stable ABIs. So we can remove/merge them at Python 4.0.
