Proposed new feature or change:

According to NEP 29, Numpy is to drop support for Python 3.9 on April 5, 2024 — a few days ago. Is this plan still accurate?

I am asking because I maintain a number of packages that depend upon Numpy and emulate Numpy's Python support policy, and there are some features in Python 3.10 that I would like to start taking advantage of if the policy permits it.
