10 | | -Past versions of Toyplot up-to 0.18 supported Python 2 and Python 3 with a |
11 | | -single code base. However, you should be aware that Python 2 will no longer be |
12 | | -maintained past 2020 (https://pythonclock.org), and Toyplot is one of many |
13 | | -projects to pledge an end to support for Python 2 |
14 | | -(https://python3statement.org). In particular, Toyplot no longer supports |
15 | | -Python 2 as of December 31st, 2018. |

20 | | -The Toyplot 0.18 branch was the final release that included Python 2 support. |
21 | | -Starting with Toyplot 0.19, portability code has been removed and our automated |
22 | | -regression tests are only run using Python 3. Of course, developers are free |
23 | | -to continue working with the 0.18 branch if they need to support Python 2, and |
24 | | -we will consider pull requests for the 0.18 branch on a case-by-case basis. |
