http://packages.ubuntu.com/zesty/python3
http://packages.ubuntu.com/zesty/python3.6

I posted about this on the ubuntu-devel mailing list:

Well I'm only a casual Linux user, but this was interesting just because of the better understanding it gives of the processes which distros have to go through once new versions are released upstream.
