Thanks for the heads-up, Julian. Subscribing.
I don't really grok how Arrow would be used with Avatica now (I struggle
with how Arrow would be used in place of Protobuf, period), but I should
make the time to figure that out.

There's a discussion on the Apache Arrow list about a proposed RPC
mechanism called Flight.
One of its use cases is for executing SQL. I fear that for SQL they
will likely end up with a protocol similar to Avatica. I think that we
should extend Avatica should allow Arrow as its data format, with as
few copies on server and client side as possible. I would welcome
contributions from the Arrow community.
