The earliest widespread version of Python

Is there a formally updated recommendation indicating which versions of Python should be supported by released modules? Or maybe a page that gives an overview of the use of products of different versions? It is difficult to understand how much to use to create new functions, such as context managers, class decorators, etc. When writing a module.

Note that learning which versions of Python are currently in use is only part of my question; I would like to find a resource that will provide the latest information for future readers of this topic (and me).
