Attendees
- Andy Grove - Mike Seddon - Andrew Lamb - Fernando Herrera - Neville Dipale - Colin Alworth - Dominik Moritz - Jorge Leitao - Nate Bauernfiend - Patrick Horan - Ruan Pearce-Authers - Wayne Xia Topics Discussed - Dominik gave a demo of his Arrow WebAssembly project ( https://github.com/domoritz/arrow-wasm) - Mike discussed CAST and the fact that we currently silently reject bad data and return null and do not offer the choice of returning errors instead. Potential solutions discussed, starting with adding this option at the compute kernel level - We talked briefly about the potential donation of Ballista. Conversation to continue on the mailing list for now - We talked about Jorge’s work on “Arrow2”. There is a desire to implement this new design in Arrow and we talked about creating a branch in the Arrow repo to continue this work. - Fernando mentioned that he was looking for new items to work on but it wasn’t clear from looking at JIRA whether other people are already working on items or not because JIRA isn’t very actively maintained. This led to a conversation about other ways for us to communicate more informally. There is now an official ASF slack but this seems to only be available for people with an apache.org email address (committers / PMC). There is a Zulip chat hosted by Ursa Labs as another option ( https://ursalabs.zulipchat.com). I will start a discussion on the mailing list about this.
