I’d vote for 2-a. Removing it in the upcoming minor release may not give enough
time for airflow users to adjust. On the other hand, we would also want to
decrease the amount of time we spend supporting various versions of Pendulum.
2.9 might be a reasonable compromise.

I understand we have a long way before we can get rid of Pendulum

number of reasons, so I think getting rid of Pendulum is likely not

Greetings everyone!
Because pendulum 3 was released we probably need to discuss about support
for the previous version of pendulum in Airflow core.
There is not much options here
Option 1: Drop support of next patch version of Airflow, e.g. 2.8.1. It
might (or might not) break someone's pipeline
Pendulum 3 was released.

I agree with wanting to stay away from having to deal with dst but I am on
the side of biting the bullet and transitioning to datetime and testing
thoroughly, especially considering our current predicament with pendulum
and the potential of us being in the same place again potentially in the
future
Yeah. Agree it's a challenge but I think it's also an opportunity to
fix those - because whether we admit it, or not - we already have those
problems - regardless of Pendulum's use.
If you look at the issues (especially ones created around DST time) - there
are always one or two issues (even in la

We need to have these test suites anyway. According to the issues and
attempts to fix DST transitions we still have that problem even with use
Pendulum, or maybe it is happen because we use pe
The alternative is to vendor in or fork pendulum as part of the Airflow
project. Also a major undertaking but maybe less effort.
We shouldn't just address this as a technical challenge. The question becomes:
does that combination fornally do DST transitions correctly, does it do leap

Agree. I think this is the best way forward.- we have to bite the bullet of
potential backwards compatibility issues and separating out a compat layer
where we could optionally use pendulum instead would be the most "easy"
approach for our users. Most of them would not even notice if we do a good

IMHO, if we would like to replace pendulum to alternatives, the better
alternative would be combination of datetime.datetime + zoneinfo +
datetime.timezone
We still do hacks around pendulum functional, which makes hacks around
datetime.datetime, so in my perspective better remove redundant layers
"infamous fork of " should be "fork of infamous Akka" - just to be clear :)

It's a very rare occurrence that ASF accepts forks. Usually it has to be
willingly donated by those who own the IP rights, - mainly because of
trademark issues. Licence is one thing, but carrying things like the name
of the project is not possible without clearing IP and donating the

An option would be to fork Pendulum? It is MIT Licensed, I don't know
whether that poses problems to get in ASF?
If forking (?) which is somewhat non-ideal, would we want that 'in'
airflow?
If not 'in' airflow, I wonder if ASF incubator would accept a forked
project? [ anecdotally Linux Foundat
I have not heard back from maintainers, just a comment from someone else
who suggested donating a pendulum to the ASF (which is kinda interesting
idea). I followed up, let's see. I think if we do not hear back and there

I think we miss important insight - straight from the source.
I believe it's time to be candid and simply ask questions for the future of
Pendulum directly where we should - ie. we should just ask maintainers.
I've just started a very candid and open discussion there -
https://github.com/sdispat
Just to clarify I'd like us to consider the possibility that no new
pendulum would be released or released at the end of 2024, like a
pessimistic scenario:
- What should we do in this case?
- Work out a backup plan.
Best Wishes

Hi,
I agree that the current speed of development of Pendulum leaves something
to be desired. However, I think we should not underestimate the effort of
replacing it. It is not just a matter of %s/pendulum/datetime/g so to say.

There is no changes in stable pendulum so let's try to continue this
discussion and start think about "Plan B"
Just a reminder:
- pendulum 2.1.2 released 3 years ago (at the time Airflow 1.10.x)
- pendulum 2 doesn't work well in Python 3.12, this is a showstopper for
the support Python 3.12

Yeah, for sure we don't need to rely on pickling, if I don't miss anything
than in Airflow 3 pickling serialisation should be removed. I just use as
reference info which might

then it can't be relied on forever.

for serialization I am not too worried about ZoneInfo. We do not use
pickling by default as we roll our own serialization format. We probably
just need the key (zoneinfo.key).
