Summary

  • Drop Python 3.11 support: remove from CI test matrix, tox envlist, and package classifiers
  • Regenerate pinned requirements using Python 3.12
  • Bump version to 5.0.0 — dropping Python support is a breaking change, so this is a major version bump

Context

Python 3.11 is being dropped across the Open edX ecosystem as part of the move
to standardize on Python 3.12. See the tracking issue for the full list of repos:
openedx/public-engineering#499

Test plan

  • CI passes with Python 3.12 only

Remove Python 3.8 and 3.11 from the CI matrix, tox envlist, pypi-publish
workflow, setup.py classifiers, and README compatibility statement.
Python 3.12 remains.

Part of the Open edX initiative to drop Python 3.11 support:

Django 4.2 reached end-of-life in April 2024. Remove the django42
tox env and classifier; social-auth-app-django>=5.7 requires Django>=5.1
so Django 4.2 is no longer compatible with the latest dependencies.

BREAKING CHANGE: Django 4.2 is no longer supported. Requires Django 5.2+.
