It depends on how many systems and virtual environments that you're upgrading. It shouldn't be an issue if it's just a new micro release for your own development machine. If you come across a regression, you can just downgrade to the previous version. That said, there's the old adage that if something isn't broken (for your needs), then you shouldn't 'fix' it. Installing a new minor release (e.g. 3.5 to 3.6) is more work, since you have to reinstall all packages and rebuild extension modules for source packages. But it's worth it to stay current with the evolution of the language. On Windows, make sure to set the PY_PYTHON3 environment variable to the version you want as the default "python3". _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
