Following python/release-tools#394, Python 3.15 and later now use PEP 440 compliant dev versions:

  • Python 3.15.0b3+dev

Python 3.14 and earlier are still on the old scheme:

  • Python 3.14.6+

Update the FAQ to reflect this.

Also rename "minor versions" to "feature versions" to follow PEP 602.
