My suggestion (somewhat self serving) is to do some "Demo Driven Development" here Specifically, I suggest we try and code up an example (in `datafusion-exampes`) for a simple usecase (like UUID): 1. Define a Arrow extension type for UUID backed by a `FixedSizeBinaryArray` 3. Demonstrate how to read/write "UUIDs" (ideally show reading/writing to parquet or some other file format) 2. Implement one or more functions that reads/writes from (only) UUIDs 4. Demonstrate running queries with UUIDs If we hit issues / rough edges with that example, then we can file tickets / fix them. Once we have the example working then we could be confident saying "it is supported" We could also use this example as part of a blog post on the topic: - https://github.com/apache/datafusion-site/pull/73 (that @timsaucer and @paleolimbot are working on) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
