Per SilentGhost's request, reposting my message from issue 27890 here --
The platform.release() function in Python 3.5.1 returns the correct value on Windows 2008 Server R2:
C:\Users\jdoe\Documents\Python>python-3.5.1-embed-amd64\python.exe
Python 3.5.1 (v3.5.1:37a07cee5969, Dec 6 2015, 01:54:25) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AM
D64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import platform
>>> platform.release()
'2008ServerR2'
However, the function in the latest release, Python 3.5.2, misidentifies the system as Windows 7:
C:\Users\jdoe\Documents\Python>python-3.5.2-embed-amd64\python.exe
Python 3.5.2 (v3.5.2:4def2a2901a5, Jun 25 2016, 22:18:55) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AM
D64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import platform
>>> platform.release()
'7'
