Change subject: IMPALA-7725: [DOCS] Support for Parquet INT64 Timestamp in 
Impala
......................................................................


Patch Set 2:

> The changes look good to me, but I have some doubts about this

I know! It took me a while to read up and understand the previous notation for 
logical types. Let me know what else I can add to make it easier to understand.
Meanwhile, your idea about a new table with timestamp is excellent.

I totally agree. It took me a while to read up and understand the original 
notation for the logical types. Let me know what else we can add to make it 
easier to understand.
Your idea about a new table with various components and timestamps is 
excellent. If you have that information readily available, I can use it. 
Otherwise, I will create a separate ticket to for that task after the release.
