Review comment:
       ```suggestion
   The Python SDK supports Python 3.6, 3.7, and 3.8. Beam 2.24.0 was the last release with support for Python 2.7 and 3.5.
   ```
   We dropped support for 2.7 and 3.5 at the same time, and we now have support for 3.8.
   
   CC @tvalentyn - any thoughts on how we can make sure this stays up to date in the future?
