I'll also need Arrow-IPC support for one of my other CERN-based
applications.
but this application isn't yet at the top of my TODO list (I'll probably
circle back to it beginning of December.)
so I'd be happy to review PRs related to adding IPC support in the meantime
:)
I haven't looked yet at what adding IPC support entails in details, thus
the rather generic and vague JIRA ticket.
breaking it into smaller items sounds like useful work indeed.
as for small-ish introductory sub-tasks, I can think of e.g. the
implementation of Time{32,64} and Date{32,64} arrays:
- https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3672
- https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3673
- https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3674
- https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3675
happy to see more gophers showing up :)
