   > Seems like both cassandra and scylladn-client have Datastax Copyright (?) 
see below (and it's a fork of the datastax python-driver) - so I understand 
they are not part of the ASF PMC work? But Scylla is a separate compamy - 
somewhat competing with cassandra (?), so I am abit cautious here to use client 
fom scylladb.

   Yes it's a fork, hence you still see the original licensing, along side with 
newer parts which are scylla specific 
   
   Yes, scylla drivers are not part of the ASF.
   
   Yes, scylladb and Datastax are competitors.
   
   We still collaborate on the drivers, and try to help each other when 
possible.
   
   In this specific case of supporting python 3.12, we several communication 
with the datastax people to see we are mostly align on how to handle asyncore 
deprecation.
   
   As for the wheels, we are building them with cibuildwheel (relatively new 
project), while datastax have a private repo for those, so we can't actively 
help with that.
   
   At the end I'm trying to help, sorry if it comes out like I'm bashing other 
projects, cassandra community and datastax are doing great work with those 
drivers.
   
   I totally understand if it won't fit your project or your users, and the 
preference to stick to code which is part of ASF. (since this ASF project)
