Andy Tolbert commented on CASSANDRA-10190:
------------------------------------------

I think it's worth updating the driver to a newer version
{quote}

I just read the comments earlier in the thread about the driver, mainly this 
one:

{quote}
Finally, extracting the checked in driver is something we'll look into. But 
that is a longpole and strictly not needed for Python 3 compatibility.
{quote}

Agree with that, don't think that should hold things up, it can be done out of 
band.  Noticed that I had already opened up a ticket of updating the python 
driver a while back for a different reason ([CASSANDRA-14872]), and there's 
probably other 4.0 specific reasons it needs to be updated, so would be good to 
do that separately.

> Users who operate in a Python 3 environment may have trouble launching cqlsh. 
> Could we please update cqlsh's syntax to run in Python 3?
> As a workaround, users can setup pyenv, and cd to a directory with a 
> .python-version containing "2.7". But it would be nice if cqlsh supported 
> modern Python versions out of the box.
