Positively surprised that Ubuntu Noble is shipping Python 3.12!

@hynek 3.12.3 even. (of course, it's an LTS and will be shipping 3.12 for a long time :-)

@eichin @hynek And with good overlap of upstream support for most of it: Python 3.12 is EOL in October 2028, Ubuntu 24.04 until June 2030.

Some library maintainers support an EOL Python version until certain distros carrying that Python are also EOL; this will help them upgrade sooner.
