I am running some tests on a branch of compas_fab that will make it more* compatible with compas 2.0. I came across an error ERROR: No matching distribution found for networkx>=3.0 for the environment build-cpython (macos-py37)

https://github.com/compas-dev/compas_fab/actions/runs/7710486107/job/21013894034?pr=400

I found a recent commit in compas that stopped it testing against 3.7, @Licini https://github.com/compas-dev/compas/pull/1160

I would like to know if the longer-term plan is to remove support for Python3.7 completely (and to keep Networkx in requirement), or if we plan to go back to supporting 3.7 (and we use an older Networkx)?

python 3.7 has reached end of life mid last year...

So, is compas 2.0 officially dropping support for 3.7?

If so, should compas_robot and compas_fab follow? @gonzalocasas

And I would suggest updating this: https://github.com/compas-dev/compas/blob/b812aeada3a307924b18cbf5e8afa02ae4775dc0/setup.py#L43

3.7 is end-of-life, so yes, let's drop it across the board
