I want to add it at least Python 3.6. Because one reason I want to
propose this is
I can't see exact Python version (commit id) for "nightly" or
"3.6-dev" on Travis-CI test.

But Python 3.6 is beta stage already. If we apply rule strictly, it
should be added
only in default branch (Python 3.7).

So, what version can I add this?

a. Only Python 3.7+
b. (beta) Python 3.6+
c. (maintenance) Python 2.7 and Python 3.5+
