Hi all,
	Quick question - an "emerge world" produces heaps of work due to Python 
3.7 -> 3.8. Is 3.8 around for a while or are we kicking over to 3.9 in 
the next week or so? In other words, is it worth doing the 3.8 upgrade 
or waiting for 3.9?

	Thoughts greatly appreciated,

		Andrew

I'm going on the assumption that waiting might save some compile time,  
but the headaches, including remembering what and what not to update  
yet, are not worth the effort.  You might get a better feel by reading  
the relevant posts in the dev mailing list, but my sense is there is no  
reason to expect the next switch to move any more quickly than this one.
