   We do have this flow in place for most of the drivers. As described at 
[arrow.apache.org/adbc/current/driver](https://arrow.apache.org/adbc/current/driver/),
 we are now maintaining most drivers in the [ADBC Driver 
Foundry](https://adbc-drivers.org) instead of in this monorepo, for exactly 
this reason, and several other reasons. Doing patch releases for the drivers 
maintained there is vastly less costly and complex. They're distributed as 
multi-language-compatible shared libraries through the [ADBC driver 
registry](https://dbc-cdn.columnar.tech). You can install them from there using 
[dbc](https://docs.columnar.tech/dbc/) and use them from any language with the 
[ADBC client 
libraries](https://arrow.apache.org/adbc/current/client_libraries.html).
   
   But three of the drivers (Flight SQL, Postgres, and SQLite) remain in this 
monorepo, mostly for historical reasons. After discussing this with @lidavidm, 
we're planning to do more frequent patch releases of these three drivers 
through this downstream ADBC driver registry. We'll follow up here when we have 
a patch release of the Flight SQL driver there.
