[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-27884) Deprecate Python 2 support in
Spark 3.0
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27884?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16940365#comment-16940365 ]
Maciej Szymkiewicz commented on SPARK-27884:
--------------------------------------------
According to [related discussion on dev|http://apache-spark-developers-list.1001551.n3.nabble.com/Thoughts-on-Spark-3-release-or-a-preview-release-td27891.html] Spark 3.0 won't be released until 2020, so it would be nice to see some clarification on the second point.
In the past Spark supported Python 2.6 almost eight years after its final release, and almost three years after its EOL. That might give some users a false sense of security. At the same time, if the 2020 drop deadline and ~6 months release schedule for minor releases are to be kept, Python 2 support should be dropped in 3.1.
