This is a big change. It will make it possible to simplify the code, add more features, improve the robustness and lower the barrier to new contributions.

As per Python's packaging documentation, the python_requires keyword argument needs setuptools >= 24.2.0 (released in 2016) and will only have en effect for pip >= 9.0.0 (released in 2016 as well).

See #329 for more information.

This is a big change.  It will make it possible to simplify the code,
add more features, improve the robustness and lower the barrier to new
contributions.

As per [Python's packaging documentation][doc], the `python_requires`
keyword argument needs `setuptools >= 24.2.0` (released in 2016) and
will only have en effect for `pip >= 9.0.0` (released in 2016 as well).
