Summary

  • Drop Python 3.11 support: remove from CI test matrix, tox envlist, and package classifiers
  • Regenerate pinned requirements using Python 3.12
  • Bump version to 1.0.0 — dropping Python support is a breaking change, so this is a major version bump

Context

Python 3.11 is being dropped across the Open edX ecosystem as part of the move
to standardize on Python 3.12. See the tracking issue for the full list of repos:
openedx/public-engineering#499

Test plan

  • CI passes with Python 3.12 only

Bump version to 1.0.0 — dropping Python support is a breaking change, so this is a major version bump

We are not planning to call it version 1 until most of this list has been completed: #353

And per semver.org, it's fine to make breaking changes within a 0.x release series.
