The README file of the apptainer validator GH repo states: _Make sure you have Python 3.11+ and pip installed._ I was wondering if this is required? As my model was built under 3.8

Oh okay - thanks for the clarification!
Hi, No there are no requirements to what Python version you use in your submission. Since we require submissions to be containerised, the container can have any environment which allows the code to run. The Python 3.11 requirement is for the baseline codebase and the container validator only -- i.e. not your submission. The container validator should run in an environment distinct from your model environment and this requires Python 3.11. Hope this makes sense! Best, Asbjørn
