> With the recent release of 0.17, the ParquetVersion is used to define the 
> logical type interpretation of fields and the selection of the DataPage 
> format.
> As a result all parquet files that were created with ParquetVersion::V2 to 
> get features such as unsigned int32s, timestamps with nanosecond resolution, 
> etc are not forward compatible (cannot be read with 0.16.0). That's TBs of 
> data in my case.
> Those two concerns should be separated. Given that that DataPageV2 pages were 
> not written prior to 0.17 and in order to allow reading existing files, the 
> existing version property should continue to operate as in 0.16 and inform 
> the logical type mapping.
> Some consideration should be given to issue a release 0.17.1.
