Thanks.

This is fixed in #39, but the mysterious Ray/Dask issues are preventing me from releasing the fix. You can checkout basestring_fix if you want to test dfsql without this problem

from dfsql.

Yes, I do not see the issue related to the import error in basestring_fix branch but it would be great to have a new release of dfsql to support it in Modin as we normally do.

Absolutely! But currently dfsql doesn't pass tests on OSX with Dask engine and on Ubuntu with Ray engine. Can't make a release until this is resolved

Hope this will happen soon.
