AIP-31: Airflow functional DAG definition
Gerard Casas Saez

Airflow does not currently have an explicit way to declare messages passed between tasks in a DAG. XCom are available but are hidden in execution functions inside the operator. AIP-31 proposes a way to make this message passing explicit in the DAG file and make it easier to reason about your DAG behaviour.
