+
+The Apache Arrow team is pleased to announce the 0.6.0 release of
+the Apache Arrow ADBC libraries. This covers includes [**46
+resolved issues**][1] from [**9 distinct contributors**][2].
+
+This is a release of the **libraries**, which are at version 0.6.0.
+The **API specification** is versioned separately and is at version
+1.0.0. (The API version will be updated to 1.1.0 in the coming
+release.)
+
+The release notes below are not exhaustive and only expose selected
+highlights of the release. Many other bugfixes and improvements have
+been made: we refer you to the [complete changelog][3].
+
+## Release Highlights
+
+The PostgreSQL and SQLite drivers have better type support. The
+PostgreSQL driver will also chunk its output now instead of always
+delivering a single record batch. The Snowflake driver no longer
+requires a URI to connect. The Python driver manager and Flight SQL
+driver deliver more concise error messages, with less fluff around the
+actual error message delivered by the database.
+
+A critical bugfix for all Go-based drivers (Flight SQL and Snowflake)
+is included. This fixes panics caused by uninitialized memory in C
+Data Interface structures appearing to the garbage collector as
+(invalid) pointers to Go memory. For details, see [issue
+729][gh-729].
+
+While C# is not yet included in this release, the library is now more
+compatible with .NET 4.

+
+## Roadmap
+
+The 1.1.0 revision of the ADBC API was accepted, but is not included
+in this release. It will be released as ADBC 0.7.0.
+
+There are currently no plans for a second API revision. As work
+progresses on asynchronous and device-aware APIs in the Arrow
+ecosystem, ADBC will eventually be updated to support any new APIs.
+
+## Getting Involved
+
+We welcome questions and contributions from all interested. Issues
+can be filed on [GitHub][4], and questions can be directed to GitHub
+or the [Arrow mailing lists][5].
