--- Comment #13 from p5B2EA84B3@t-online.de ---
What exactly prevents the committing of lang/python3.13 as a new port.

I do see Wen's attachments but not an initial commit for creating the port.

I do need to understand the criteria/policy if any for porting new Python
releases. 

We had python 3.10.0.beta4, 3.10.0rc1, 3.10.0rc2 as ports but do fail to
provide actual Python releases for 3.12 and 3.12. 

What's going on here please? What is the point of failure?

I do NOT criticize Wen here, as he is doing a great job by providing
port-upgrades for Python in typically less than 5 days. And he is the one
providing upgrade attachments. But there is an issue for getting the first
(3.x.0 versions) releases in a reasonable timely manner as a port.

And yes, upgrading Python default versions looked also more like <fill in a
appropriate word yourself> than anything else. But this is another story and
still needs to be improved.
