> Based on the discussion in the maillist, we decided to drop support for end-of-life python versions. At the time of writing (ref: [https://devguide.python.org/devcycle/#end-of-life-branches|https://devguide.python.org/devcycle/#end-of-life-branches)]), this includes python 2, and python 3 < 3.7. Create this ticket to track the work, which includes (but probably not limited to):
>  # Drop support for python2.
>  # If we have any code to support older python version that's already end-of-line (for example, to support IntEnum before python 3.4), we can drop those special handling and only support the new version now.
>  # Modify CI to only run supported Python versions, and modify documentation to reflect the supported python versions accordingly.
