We definitely can.  The cost of supporting Python 3.6 is rather low.

Could we postpone the dropping Python 3.6 support to be inline with what
the Python core maintainers deadline?  Or at least until the Arrow 6
release?

Thanks,

Hello,

In https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12706 it was proposed to
drop support for the aforementioned Python and Numpy versions.  The
rationale is that they have ceased to be supported by Numpy, which is a
mandatory dependency of PyArrow.

Besides, Pandas (an optional dependency of PyArrow) already dropped
support for Python 3.6, and Python 3.6 will be unsupported by the Python
core team at the end of 2021.

What do you think?  If you are opposed to this, please speak up.

Regards

Antoine.
