Hello, This thread was originated from: https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/34805 that tries to upgrade the generator version to 7.0.1.
*Motivations/Context:* New versions of the openapi generator hold breaking changes in regards to the clients code generated. For this reason, up to now we chose not to upgrade the generator version. This causes several issues that are stacking up, for instance some modern openapi keywords are poorly supported by the generator, go client is stuck on an old version of Go (insecure) we are currently unable to release a new version for it, cf this PR <https://github.com/apache/airflow-client-go/pull/43> and we are missing a bunch of new features/security patches from the generator. Also as Jarek mentioned in this comment <https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/34805#discussion_r1367956354> it might also be a good opportunity to update the build and release process to improve security for our client packages. The current policy does not state how major versions should be handled for clients, and silently suggests that we never release a client major version, unless airflow 3 comes out. *Proposal:*What I want to propose is to update the API clients release policy to allow breaking major versions for clients if needed, and decouple even more core/client versioning. Client minor and major versions would not be in sync with core versions anymore, but I don't think it has to be. (it was already the case for patch version and it was never an issue) If this proposal were to be accepted, we would release a new python and go client major version (3.0.0) to fix the issues stated above and take this breaking change opportunity to push build and release process updates as needed. *Note:* Current clients Versioning policy: https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/dev/README_RELEASE_AIRFLOW.md#api-clients
