-## Python 3.6 support will be dropped in the next release
-
-The final [Python 3.6 release was 3.6.15 in September](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0494/#lifespan).
-This release series is now End-of-Life (EOL). The only LTS distribution that
-still ships Python 3.5 as the default Python is Ubuntu 18.04, which has Python
-3.8 available as well.
-
-Python 3.7 has various features that we find useful such as future annotations,
-the importlib.resources module, and dataclasses.
-
-As a result, we will begin requiring Python 3.7 or newer in Meson 0.62, which
-is the next release. Starting with Meson 0.61, we now print a `NOTICE:` when
-a `meson` command is run on Python 3.6 to inform users about this.
