+The Apache Arrow team is pleased to announce the 16.1.0 release.
+This is a minor release that includes [**34 resolved issues**][1]
+from [**16 distinct contributors**][2]. See the Install Page to learn how to
get the libraries for your platform.
+
+The release notes below are not exhaustive and only expose selected highlights
+of the release. Other bugfixes and improvements have been made: we refer
+you to the [complete changelog][3].
+
+## C Data Interface notes
+
+
+## Arrow Flight RPC notes
+
+
+## C++ notes
+
+The scratch space required by some `Scalar` subclasses is now immutable after
+initialization ([GH-40069](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/40069)).
This fixes thread-safety bugs when this scratch
+space was lazily initialized, but introduces an API incompatibility because
+writing to the `value` member of some concrete `Scalar` subclasses is not
+allowed anymore. Affected classes include `BaseBinaryScalar`, `BaseListScalar`,
+`SparseUnionScalar`, `DenseUnionScalar` and `RunEndEncodedScalar`.
+
+The `bit_width` and `byte_width` methods on `ExtensionType` now return the
+corresponding value for the underlying storage type
([GH-41353](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/41353)).
+
+### Parquet
+
+A regression that prevented reading BYTE_STREAM_SPLIT columns with null values
+was fixed ([GH-41562](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/41562)).
+
+## C# notes
+* Recompute a sliced array's null count on demand when it is unknown
([GH-41136](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/41136))
+* Support writing sliced arrays in the Arrow IPC format
([GH-40517](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/40517),
[GH-41225](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/41225),
[GH-41231](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/41231))
+* Bug fixes for union array behaviour
([GH-41137](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/41137),
[GH-41140](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/41140))
+
+## Go Notes
+
+* Enable support for reading date64 from CSV
([GH-41594](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/41594))
+* Update MarshalJSON() for Float32 and Float64 to be able to handle NaN, +Inf
and -Inf values ([GH-40563](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/40563))
Review Comment:
Thanks! I was gonna get to it but got bogged down in other things, sorry.
This looks good to me
