             Summary: [Docs] Describe supported OS + client languages
                 Key: ARROW-13066
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-13066
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Documentation
            Reporter: Jonathan Keane


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
