If I am understanding this correctly, this is a PR for a new project along side of the Apache AGE extension. It does not modify nor extend the actual extension itself, which is Apache AGE. It merely adds an alternative, rooted in PostgreSQL version 13, to the extension.
I am not opposed to thinking of Apache AGE as a suite of openCypher implementations and adding this as a fully integrated openCypher implementation option; this could give more options to users. However, as this PR is donated code, I believe it will need to go through the whole donation process. Additional questions to think about - How fully does it implement the openCypher specification compared to the extension? How does it perform relative to the extension? Will we have the resources to bring them into line and across all supported versions? Does the community want or need this? john On 2024/05/06 21:52:08 Eya Badal wrote: > Dear Everyone, > > I hope you are doing great. > > We would like to have a conversation about a recent Pull Request [1] that we > received for Apache AGE.
