Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-13066:
-----------------------------------------------

For Python it might be rather listed at [https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/install.html#python-compatibility]

 

I notice that this information is actually also outdated ..

>                 Key: ARROW-13066
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-13066
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Documentation
>            Reporter: Jonathan Keane
>            Priority: Minor
>
> We mention which operating systems we support: https://arrow.apache.org/install/#c-and-glib-c-packages-for-debian-gnulinux-ubuntu-and-centos
> And which Python versions: https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/python.html
> But we should also include other languages (e.g. R), as well as some philosophy / criteria for how long we support them (Python versions until they are EOLed, R versions 5 years back, ...)
> Additionally: "It would be good to make a note somewhere of (1) platforms we test on, (2) platforms we have worked to support in the past but don't have CI for (e.g. solaris, ibm something that came up recently, raspbian per Nic's issue, etc.), and (3) what one can do if they want to add support for some other platform not listed" -Neal
