## Python version compatibility

This collection depends on the AWS SDK for Python (Boto3 and Botocore). Due to the
[AWS SDK Python Support Policy](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/python-support-policy-updates-for-aws-sdks-and-tools/)
this collection requires Python 3.7 or greater.
this collection requires Python 3.8 or greater.

Amazon have also announced the planned end of support for
[Python less than 3.8](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/python-support-policy-updates-for-aws-sdks-and-tools/).
As such support for Python less than 3.8 will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01.

I think this statement is added when we generally add a deprecation. However, I would like to double check on this with @tremble.

Since the SDK support ends in April 2026, can we mention May 2026 here when we plan the next major release ?

As such, support for Python less than 3.9 will be removed in a release after 2026-05-01.
