[jira] [Commented] (ARROW-8588) [Python] `driver` param removed from `hdfs.connect()`

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8588?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17092425#comment-17092425 ] 

Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-8588:
-------------------------------------

It would be better to have a deprecation warning announcing that support will be removed in a future major release.  Would you like to submit a PR?

> Hi,
> It appears in ARROW-7863 the `driver` param was removed from `hdfs.connect()` function. However, if I understand it correctly, ARROW-7863 should only remove `libhdfs3` related tests, not disabling it entirely.
> If I instantiate `pyarrow.HadoopFileSystem` class directly, it is still able to take in the `driver` param.
> Can the arrow project check whether this change in API is intended?
> Also, even if it is intended, this is a breaking change and deserves some documentation around it.
