 Known Issues
 ============
-The Python bindings only work with Python 2.7. SCons doesn't work with Python 3, and PyCapsule isn't available in 2.6 and below, so 2.7 is all you get. Sorry about that.
+The Python bindings work with Python 2.7, and Python 3.5+.
 
 The requirement for SWIG >= 2.0.8 for Perl bindings is due to a [known bug](http://sourceforge.net/p/swig/patches/324/) in SWIG. [ppa:dns/irc](https://launchpad.net/~dns/+archive/irc) has backports of SWIG 2.0.8 for Ubuntu versions 10.04-12.10; you can also [build SWIG from source](http://www.swig.org/download.html).
