Thanks for opening the discussion issue Kevin! I put a wishlist of 3 PRs I'd love to get in that would allow DataFusion Comet to use a crate release of Iceberg Rust when we merge [1] but that's not a strict requirement. That said, I don't want to create undue review burden in time for a release. I'll keep an eye on the discussion issue and any PRs linked there I'll try to jump in and review. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to support the release.
Thanks, Matt [1] https://github.com/apache/datafusion-comet/pull/2528 On 2025/11/12 19:42:52 Kevin Liu wrote: > Hey Xuanwo, > > I realized I replied to this in my head but never actually sent a response > :) > > I think starting another release is a great idea!
