This module contains the most recent version of selected Python 3 packages.
It has a different lifecycle than &sle; itself. Packages in this module are
frequently updated to new upstream versions.
This module provides the Python 3.11 interpreter (including setuptools, wheel,
and pypi support) and many additional maintained Python 3.11 modules. It has
a different lifecycle than &productname; itself. The Python 3.11 and the
contained Python 3.11 modules are supported at least until the end of December
2027. The Python 3.11 modules might be updated with the next service pack (if
compatible and when needed).
</para>
<para>
Packages within the Python 3 module can be installed alongside existing
Python packages, and they can coexist in the same system without
impacting any ongoing Python 3.6 workloads.
</para>
<para>
In &productname; &productnumber;, the Python 3 module ships with Python 3.11.
Python 3.11 is compatible with versions 3.10 and 3.9. The code written in 3.9
or 3.10 should run without changes or only with minimal changes in 3.11.
