I recall that Python 3.6.0 was full of bugs, some functions like
os.waitpid() on Windows (if I recall correctly) were completely
broken.

We can do our best to test as much as possible, hope that more and
more people use the "nightly" Python version to run their CI, but we
always miss bugs. We always get the most testers when the final x.y.0
version is released.

Why waiting two months to release bugfixes?
