Hi Venkatesh and Ed, Thanks for your replies and helpful details! Glad to see that you're interested in this.
We currently have one forked MADlib repo to support Cloudberry with some changes[1]. I need to speak with the engineers to see how to contribute the changes back to MADlib. I will share the updates in the dev email list. Thanks again!
