So the first step as I see it is that someone has to code up / find a Rust implementation for working with variant values. This could be a port or inspired by the ones @CurtHagenlocher 's points at here: > There's a pure Python implementation in [the Spark repo](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/python/pyspark/sql/variant_utils.py). > There's an implementation in Spark (try [here](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/007c31df6da7b741f3a2a43c859ebed9f801dcfa/common/variant/src/main/java/org/apache/spark/types/variant/Variant.java#L43) for starters) Once we have such a library, we can then figure out if/how it should be used in the parquet reader/writer directly -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
