# NumPy 1.22.3 Release Notes

NumPy 1.22.3 is a maintenance release that fixes bugs discovered after the 1.22.2 release. The most noticeable fixes may be those for DLPack. One that may cause some problems is disallowing strings as inputs to logical ufuncs. It is still undecided how strings should be treated in those functions and it was thought best to simply disallow them until a decision was reached. That should not cause problems with older code.

The Python versions supported for this release are 3.8-3.10. Note that the Mac wheels are now based on OS X 10.14 rather than 10.9 that was used in previous NumPy release cycles. 10.14 is the oldest release supported by Apple.
