There were so many Rust developments recently (321 issues out of the total
650, daily almost 4 issues - including the weekends and holidays) that
there is a big chance cool and great PRs are delayed to 4.0.0.
This is not "just okay", but something we should celebrate.
I'm simply stunned with the amount of work you have done since 2.0.0.
If anything, the release cadence could be improved, but that's already on
the horizon.

I'm just a simple user, but thanks to everybody in the Arrow community. I'm
learning a lot just by reading the developments in different fields
(datafusion optimizer, python api improvements, kernels optimizations,
parquet integrations).

Best regards,
Adam Lippai
