Mostly the message I want to get across eventually is
My hope is that by bundling together a bunch of related features and giving it a name (like "Modern Pandas") that we can build some excitement around the project. What I've written here is ok, but not anything special. I think that this topic deserves something special. I'd welcome both of your thoughts on the subject. |

Instead of Modern Pandas we could focus more on the evolution part? Not sure if this would land better.
I like the message that you are delivering. I'd focus a bit more on the downstream libraries part. This is a big part of our ecosystem.
One of the speakers who gave a Polars talk referenced the 10 points from this post: https://wesmckinney.com/blog/apache-arrow-pandas-internals/

Haven't played much with DuckDB but 10x is a bit too optimistic for polars
cc @jorisvandenbossche @phofl after our chat while walking the other night I thought I should write up something.
This is a very early draft. It just has some basic thoughts down. It's not near finished. (The thoughts are not laid out in an interesting way yet).
Still though, I thought it would be good to get both of your input. I think that there might be some value is naming a movement here like "Modern Pandas".
Critical feedback / broad ideas welcome
