This release supports Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12.

There is preliminary support for Python 3.12, but this is not officially recommended yet. Especially some changes in `RestrictedPython` may need to happen still.
Plone 6.0.9 is the first release that officially supports Python 3.12. This is made possible by recent changes in `Zope` and `RestrictedPython`.
Note that Plone 6.0 is tested on Python 3.8 and 3.11 on every change to core packages. For the other Python versions we run the tests once a week.
