> Key: ARROW-7

> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Python
> Reporter: Wes McKinney

> I will be working on a patch to make the initial Arrow C++ {{libarrow.so}}
> library callable from Cython (http://cython.org/) extensions. For the
> uninitiated, Cython is the modern "gold standard" for interoperability with
> C++ libraries. I have used it recently to create Kudu's Python client
> (https://github.com/apache/incubator-kudu/tree/master/python/kudu).
> A significant amount of Python "glue code" will be needed to interoperate
> with pandas, NumPy, and other standard Python libraries (in addition to
> Python's built-in scalar data types), but these will be the subject of many
> follow up JIRAs.
