My notes from our syncup. *Attendees* Wes: Discuss 0.9/1.0 Jacques: Nothing in particular. Sidd: Nothing in particular. Li: Binary format stability. Simba: Discuss release Uwe: 0.9 release, UUID type Kevin: Nothing in particular.
*Format Stability* Interval type and unions need work/integration tests. Other types are probably stable but no guarantees until 1.0. Only guarantee that we have now is that a format change will cause an error (for example, the format version changed in 0.8). As part of this we need to verify if Java is verifying binary format. *Release 0.9* Work towards getting a candidate up next week. Sidd “volunteered” to be release manager. People are going to get what they can done before next week. *Type Annotations* Uwe will look to propose an structured way to annotate types for things like UUID. Need to decide where it can be applied (list of structs, leaf values, etc). Also, what validation will library do. Wes mentioned that the recent work in Parquet may be good inspiration. *Needs for 1.0* Finalize Interval and Union Java implementation of map type and integration tests. C++ complete the implementation for map type. C++ implementation of fixed size list. On Wed, Feb 21, 2018 at 8:51 AM, Wes McKinney <[email protected]> wrote: > https://meet.google.com/vtm-teks-phx >
