I'd be happy to join in on the efforts. I can represent the user needs we see at Airbnb, and in particular some of the challenges and needs we see for a very mature and large deployment of Superset, as well as how Superset interplays with other data tools in an overall data ecosystem. --Sylvia On Tue, Aug 6, 2019 at 10:53 AM Eli Brumbaugh <eli.brumba...@airbnb.com.invalid> wrote: > Hi Max, > > Thank you for sharing this exciting update.
