I am working on putting together a comprehensive test plan specifically
covering parquet reader. One part of the plan is to create a tool that can
generate parquet files of all flavors. This will considerably increase our
coverage, and hopefully prevent this type of issues. I am looking at
paqeut-mr and parqeut-compatability to get ideas. Hopefully I am on the
right track. Welcome pointers.

Thanks,
Chun
