I'm now a maintainer for green on GitHub and Pypi.org. I was able to release v3.5.0 and will look into releasing 4.0.0 with support for Python 3.12 in the next few days.

Thanks @CleanCut !

Thank you for taking this on when life events prevent me from spending the time!

@sodul Cool, that would be fantastic. I'm going through some major life changes right now, which has made it extremely difficult to keep up with Green.

Go ahead and start by opening some PR's. I'll review them and when a few of those look good, I'll start increasing your permissions and let you act more independently.

@CleanCut I totally understand, life happens. I've added a new PR to address the new warnings with python 3.12. Once 274 and 275 are merged it would be good to get a new official release out.

I did try to add some type annotation a few months back and uncovered a few potential bugs. The issue is that the type annotation available with 3.6 and 3.7 is limited compared to what we can do with 3.8, and there is some code that is different between 3.8 and older versions that makes it even more difficult to get the type annotation to work. So if you are open to it I would request that the next release with the 3.12 compatibility becomes the last release to support 3.6 and 3.7 which are both unsupported upstream. Once I know I do not need to stay compatible with 3.7 I can start refactoring the codebase to use modern type annotation and python 3 syntax. Python 3.13 is deprecating even more old syntax, removing 'dead batteries'.

💯 Agreed.

I'm fine dropping compatibility for this release. We'll just have to bump major versions if we do that (which is fine).

The most recent release of green, 3.4.3, supports Python 2.7 and IIRC at least Python 3.5. The current main supports 3.6 and 3.7 this is why I think it would be good to do a new green 3.5.0 release which officially drops 2.7 and 3.5, but that folks on 3.6 and 3.7 will be able to use. We can then drop 3.6 and 3.7 in main, I'll cleanup some underlying code and will add modern type annotation.

That's 100% your call, let me know how you want to proceed and I'll be happy to submit a few PRs.

Sure, that's good advice.
