I agree as well. I think most lingering uses of the term "feather" are in pyarrow and R however, so it might be good to hear from some of those maintainers. On Mon, Aug 29, 2022 at 9:35 AM Antoine Pitrou wrote: > > > I agree with this as well. > > Regards > > Antoine. > > > On Mon, 29 Aug 2022

When I wrote "In-Memory Analytics with Apache Arrow" I definitely treated "Feather" as deprecated and mentioned it only in passing specifically indicating "Arrow IPC" as the terminology to use. I only even mentioned "Feather" at all because there are still methods in pyarrow that reference it b
