Following the discussion in the "Pandas 2 vs 3" thread, I am also excluding from this vote all providers that carry the pandas<3 cap:
* amazon * apache.hdfs * apache.hive * common.sql * databricks * exasol * google * papermill * postgres * presto * salesforce * snowflake * trino * weaviate The cap is there because pandas 3 changes the dtypes a DataFrame reads back with, so DataFrame XComs do not round-trip. As agreed in the other thread, the plan is to revert #70791 and rebase + merge #70558 instead for Airflow 3.1.1rc In amazon, common.sql and postgres the cap sits in the optional "pandas" extra rather than in the core dependencies, but I am excluding those as well for consistency - and common.sql is a dependency of most of the others anyway. These will be expedited in a follow-up wave as soon as #70558 lands - they will not have to wait for the next regular provider release cadence.
