Apologies for showing up at the last minute but I'm now re-engaged in the project after a bit of an absence and I noticed that we have some dependency conflicts due to the parquet-format crate (not controlled by Apache) using Thrift 0.12 whereas the parquet crate uses Thrift 0.13 and they require different versions of the byteorder crate.
However, I have seen that not everyone is running into this issue, which confuses me. Maybe this is related to cached dependencies and the fact that we do not check in Cargo.lock (which we should not need to since this project is a library rather than a binary). See ARROW-7563 and ARROW-7507 for more context. I have created a PR against the parquet-format crate and hopefully, we can get a new version published. We need to get this crate under ASF control IMHO. See ARROW-6256. Andy.
