[python-committers] AppVeyor is now required to pass on PRs

[Steve Dower]

Python 3 runs builds against the old MSVC (14.0) and the current one (14.1). I’m happy to fully drop support for the older one and remove those builds, but there was a bit of push back when first proposed. (Both toolsets produce binary compatible outputs, but the newer one has better library/compiler support and we may break people who don’t want to upgrade if we use it.)

Hi Brett,

Stability doesn't appear to be a problem, but we have much less
parallelism on AppVeyor than we do on Travis-CI.  This may make waiting
times longer than they used to be.

Apparently 3.6 builds (and perhaps 2.7) trigger two sequential AppVeyor
jobs:
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/python/cpython/build/3.6build10551

If the wait times become an issue for anyone then let me know and we can re-evaluate the situation.
