python3.8 is out

[hyunlee1o]

Could you add support to it please?

[skvark]

3.8 builds will be added when the whole toolchain supports it. Afaik Appveoyr does not have Python 3.8 available but I hope it will be added soon: https://www.appveyor.com/docs/windows-images-software/#python

Manylinux added support yesterday: pypa/manylinux@f9ef816

macOS is also ok: matthew-brett/multibuild@8c8d6e6

Given that AppVeyor seems to be asleep at the wheel on Python 3.8, does it make sense to shift the Windows tests to Travis or others?

[maximveksler]

We should see which CI gets there first. Another option is manually installing and compiling python before building the wheel. That's a workaround, but highly impractical one.

Travis already supports Python 3.8 on Linux and Windows: https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/python/#running-python-tests-on-multiple-operating-systems

Pull requests are welcome. However, there seems to be a fast workaround now appveyor/ci#3142 (comment). It's quite a lot faster to implement the workaround than to setup the Travis Windows support.

@skvark , can we expect work on Python 3.8 support to begin soon?

[Rukario]

I've waited for 3.8 support...

[skvark]

Python 3.8 wheels will be released when I have the time to fix the builds. multibuild upgrade broke something and that needs to be fixed to get the macOS & Linux builds working. Appveyor is not a blocking issue, I would have already released new version without these additional issues.

waiting for 3.8 support. Thanks for the effort!
