Hi, I would like to propose a release of the Apache DataFusion Python Bindings, version 45.2.0.
I have two special notes for this release - The version is 45.2.0 due to changes I needed to make during release candidate testing prior to submitting this for a vote. I would like to revisit next release how we compose release candidates to prevent these minor version numbers from diverging too far from the upstream DataFusion repository. - There is currently a bug in pyarrow-19.0.0. This is a known issue described at [5] that will be updated very soon. When running the validation you will need to do an additional step of `pip install pyarrow==18.0.0` to downgrade pyarrow. This release candidate is based on commit: 639e2abc9ce1e7753f9779c7496da799a32c54a5 [1] The proposed release tarball and signatures are hosted at [2]. The changelog is located at [3]. The Python wheels are located at [4]. Please download, verify checksums and signatures, run the unit tests, and vote on the release. The vote will be open for at least 72 hours. Only votes from PMC members are binding, but all members of the community are encouraged to test the release and vote with "(non-binding)". The standard verification procedure is documented at https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/blob/main/dev/release/README.md#verifying-release-candidates .
