After a few days of delay, but somewhat cutely timed with the US Independence 
Day, I present you Python 3.8.0b2:

https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-380b2/ 
<https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-380b2/>

This release is the second of four planned beta release previews. Beta release 
previews are intended to give the wider community the opportunity to test new 
features and bug fixes and to prepare their projects to support the new feature 
release. The next pre-release of Python 3.8 will be 3.8.0b3, currently 
scheduled for 2019-07-29.

Call to action

We strongly encourage maintainers of third-party Python projects to test with 
3.8 during the beta phase and report issues found to the Python bug tracker 
<https://bugs.python.org/> as soon as possible. While the release is planned to 
be feature complete entering the beta phase, it is possible that features may 
be modified or, in rare cases, deleted up until the start of the release 
candidate phase (2019-09-30). Our goal is have no ABI changes after beta 3 and 
no code changes after 3.8.0rc1, the release candidate. To achieve that, it will 
be extremely important to get as much exposure for 3.8 as possible during the 
beta phase.

Please keep in mind that this is a preview release and its use is not 
recommended for production environments.

No more non-bugfixes allowed on the “3.8” branch

The time has come, team. Please help make Python 3.8 as stable as possible and 
keep all features not currently landed for Python 3.9. Don’t fret, it’ll come 
faster than you think.
