Hi @maurerle, thanks for the review! To answer your questions: 1. **Where it's needed:** It's inside the bundled Datastax driver (`lib/cassandra-driver-internal-only-3.29.0.zip`). When `libev` C-extensions aren't present, the driver explicitly defaults to `AsyncoreConnection` (`cassandra/io/asyncorereactor.py`), which causes the crash on Python 3.12+. 2. **Migrating to asyncio:** Yes, migrating to `asyncio` is definitely the right midterm approach. For this PR, vendoring `pyasyncore` is just a safe, immediate fix that avoids manually patching the upstream third-party driver. We can easily drop this dependency in the future once the bundled driver is updated upstream to use `asyncio` by default. 3. **Older versions:** Exactly! I verified it locally with Python 3.9 and 3.11; they seamlessly use the stdlib version without any issues. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
