Python 3.12 Alpha 6 was released on Tuesday, March 9. Python 3.11 was released a few months ago and has greatly improved performance, but the development team hasn’t stopped moving forward and is moving quickly with the next update to 3.12.
The changelog that Python 3.12 mainly improves error messages, supports the Linux perf parser, removes several old/broken/deprecated functions, and changes the internal representation of integers in preparation for subsequent performance optimizations.
Python 3.12 is scheduled for another alpha release next month, followed by a beta release starting in early May, which means a feature freeze. after four betas and two release candidates, the stable version of Python 3.12 is expected to go live in early October.
