Python 3.13.0 alpha 1 now available.
It’s not a very exciting release (yet), but it’s time for the first alpha
of Python 3.13 anyway!

*This is an early developer preview of Python 3.13*
<https://discuss.python.org/t/python-3-13-0-alpha-1/36109#major-new-features-of-the-313-series-compared-to-312-1>Major
new features of the 3.13 series, compared to 3.12

Python 3.13 is still in development. This release, 3.13.0a1 is the first of
seven planned alpha releases.

Alpha releases are intended to make it easier to test the current state of
new features and bug fixes and to test the release process.

During the alpha phase, features may be added up until the start of the
beta phase (2024-05-07) and, if necessary, may be modified or deleted up
until the release candidate phase (2024-07-30). Please keep in mind that
this is a preview release and its use is *not* recommended for production
environments.

Many new features for Python 3.13 are still being planned and written. The
most notable change so far are new deprecations
<https://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.13.html#deprecated>, most of which
are scheduled for removal from Python 3.15 or 3.16

(Hey, *fellow core developer,* if a feature you find important is missing
from this list, let Thomas know <thomas@python.org>.)

The next pre-release of Python 3.13 will be 3.13.0a2, currently scheduled
for 2023-11-21.
