> where are we on variant support in general? Is it sufficiently mature that people could reasonably expect to use it starting with arrow-57? If not, what is missing and how hard would it be to add? From my perspective, we are "done enough" with the initial implementation - https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/6736 Though there are plenty of additional work / items listed here: - https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/8480 What I am personally focusing on now is the initial attempts to integrate variant in downstream crates, notably 1. @friendlymatthew 's work in https://github.com/datafusion-contrib/datafusion-variant -- see https://github.com/datafusion-contrib/datafusion-variant/issues/2 for status 2. @XiangpengHao 's work in https://github.com/XiangpengHao/liquid-cache/issues/392 in LiquidCache What I am hoping / expecting now is that we'll get a stream of tickets of rough edges and API issues to help guide where next to spend time @friendlymatthew has already started filing these issues: - [ ] https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/8605 - [ ] https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/8606 - [ ] https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/8609 - [ ] https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/8610 - [ ] https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/8612 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
