Thanks! Changing the tox env versions for the typing module is a good catch considering #784.

Off topic: I see #247 and python/cpython#16204 saying typing became implicitly non-provisional in 3.7 because no new features were added, but PEP 484 still says Status: | Provisional ? Maybe that PEP needs discussion/updating once Guido's back.

Good catch, I opened python/peps#1942 to fix it.

I wonder if it's too early to also add to the classifiers list below this the following classifier: 'Programming Language :: Python :: 3.10', while you're at it?

Yeah I was thinking about that. Let me just run the test suite on current CPython master to be sure.

I hope I didn't do any double work here, but FWIW, the latest CPython master runs the tests with no errors on my machine.

And also IntVar, which still doesn't have a PEP proposing it.
PEP 484 is still marked as "Provisional", but as @Fidget-Spinner pointed out in python/typing#805, it shouldn't be any more. python/cpython#16204 removed talk about typing's provisional status from the module docs, and enhancements to typing have been in the form of new PEPs for the last few release cycles. Going to mark this as a draft so Guido can have a chance to comment once he's back.
