+    However, there are only very few pip installable modules that are still

+    introduced the new Python 3 Module. It includes an additional modern Python
+    interpreter (plus setuptool, wheel, pip and pypi support, but no additional
+    modules). This new allows more flexibility in providing a fully supported

+    In &productname; &productnumber; the Python 3 Module ships with Python 3.11.
+    Python 3.11 is compatible with versions 3.10 and 3.9. Code written in 3.9
+    or 3.10 should run without or with only minimal changes in 3.11.

+    This module contains version 3.11 of selected Python 3 packages.

+    each service Pack (if applicable) and will be supported for 18 months.
