With the goal of finalizing a spec for V1, I've created JIRAs on the format
component.
Here is a list bellow. Please discuss on individual JIRAs if you have
comments.
- [ARROW-253] restrict ints to only power of 2 #bytes (8, 16, 32, 64)
- [ARROW-254] remove Bit as we use Boolean for nullability array (validity
vector)
- [ARROW-252] add implementation guidelines
- [ARROW-255] dictionary encoding spec
- [ARROW-258] need to clarify Buffer.{page,offset} in mem sharing and
RPC/file contexts
- [ARROW-256] add format version
- [ARROW-257] add types vector to union type (to enable using type ids
instead of child offset)
