The development team is preparing for making a new release of arrow in the next days/weeks if everything goes well and the release gets approved.
To prevent shipping possible regressions, future problems and allow the contributors to address any of those before it gets released it would be great if users who have time would be willing to test the current state of Arrow and check if they face any regression. Python and R users can try the current state of arrow at any time following the instructions at * Python: https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/install.html#installing-nightly-packages * R: https://arrow.apache.org/docs/r/#installing-a-development-version Please make sure you compare to the current 4.0.1 release, to reduce the risk of incurring in just deprecations or api changes that are not regressions. Thanks to everyone willing to help by verifying this!
