Thanks everyone for jumping in. Rahul, I think we can target that for the next minor release. For the 1.17.1 patch release we only want to include bugfixes.
I took the liberty of creating some milestones: - 1.17.1: https://github.com/apache/parquet-java/milestone/33 - 1.18.0: https://github.com/apache/parquet-java/milestone/34 I've already cherry-picked the Jackson bump to the 1.17.x branch: https://github.com/apache/parquet-java/commits/parquet-1.17.x/ Kind regards, Fokko On 2026/04/28 03:03:07 Gang Wu wrote: > Thanks Rahil for the reminder!
