Install base of Python 3.7 and 3.8 constitutes >50% of all installed python versions (see https://w3techs.com/technologies/history_details/pl-python/3 for example) and specifically to beaker, Python 2.7 is still the 4th most used version with 3.7 being the 3rd: https://pypistats.org/packages/beaker
Beaker should follow the demand from its users, not force them to upgrade unless it's necessary.
Especially since the overhead of maintaining backward compatibility hasn't been much so far.
Over time we will phase out unused versions.

This RFE i snot about abandon support of any of those python versions. 😄
It is about branch current tree and backport only critical changes to be able keep on master 100% c;lean code supporting only not EOSed python versions 😋
Benefit of that is that should allow remove and/or clen a lot of code which would fully compensate devel man/hours spend on backporting critical changes.
Only this and nothing more ..

I'm not convinced that it would compensate the labour necessary to maintain two branches, practically rewriting everything twice, especially as the codebase starts to diverge and thus changes might not easily merge anymore. Plus the initial effort at upgrading the codebase (and no, pyupgrade --py39-plus
is not enough if you want to actually take benefit on the new patterns that are available in newer versions instead of just changing set(...)
to {...}
which is little more than syntactic sugar)

Please .. I'm not talking about create two branches. I'm talking about one branch and backport only critical fixes.

Please try to have closer look closer on what is possible to remove more after that automatic filtering all code.

I have no interest in backporting only critical fixes given that the Beaker users of versions < 3.9 are still the majority, so it would imply maintaining two branches. I still don't see the benefit of this and I will personally phase out Python versions when I see them going in disuse between our users.
