Looks like ["http", "ftp", "sqlite", "imap"] is the winning set. They are all rather small and they increase the size of installation by likely less than 1%. > I am concerned that this is a good idea. I think it would be worthwhile for the user to pin a specific version so that they do not accidentally install a newer version that may contain regressions. @mik-laj -> I do not think we have to move them to the "core". I can easily make those extras "enabled" by default as extras that are always used implicitly. This means that while they will be installed by default in their latest version even with `pip install airflow` will also install those 4 providers. There will be no "constraints" for those - the user will have to explicitly upgrade them and will keep the possibility of downgrading them. I will update FAQs explaining this behavior. One more comment: I also think it will be great to have a few providers installed from day zero. People might not fully realize that there are providers and they might be surprised to not see those other integrations installed but by seeing few providers pre-installed, this will be much more obvious. Simply 'pip freeze | grep apache-airflow` will show them how provider packages look like. If there will be no more comments shortly, I will write this proposal to the devlist. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
