Wes McKinney commented on PARQUET-267:
--------------------------------------

That makes sense to me; if we can avoid putting thirdparty libraries in the git 
repo for the sandbox that would be great. If you want to rebase your cmake 
changes on my PR https://github.com/apache/parquet-cpp/pull/14 plus an 
initialize_sandbox.sh that sounds ideal if [~nongli] agrees. I can do some of 
the legwork, too, if you prefer.

The only thing we probably shouldn't build in the sandbox is boost.

> The existing repo has source code for third party dependencies checked into 
> the repo.  The build system expects those dependencies in a certain place.  
> This enforces that the built library conform to those exact dependencies 
> without customization.
> Managing third party dependencies is better handled through a build 
> environment.  It allows the library builder more flexibility over dependency 
> versions and locations.  It also cleans up the repo from this third party 
> code.
