Thanks for your feedback. After some consideration and discussion with a few contributors, I'm going to create the repo of name "datasketches-tck" which means DataSketches Technology Compatibility Kit. This follows the impression of Java's Technology Compatibility Kit [1] and for DataSketches, it would contain test suites of compatibility among datasketches implementations, including mainly the serialization format.
[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_Compatibility_Kit The initial implementation contains serialization snapshot of Java and C++, and we shall be able to add Go's and Rust's snapshots later. The generator is already present at [2] while I'd cut the code into one generator per language. [2] https://github.com/apache/datasketches-rust/blob/ee6e1cc432555c3562274ec36fc2dd6419b96701/tools/generate_serialization_test_data.py Naming is hard and it takes all this time to figure out how to name the repo to define its proper scope. I'd share the link to the initialized repo on the list this week or the next. Welcome to drop your comments if you have any additional ideas. Best, tison.
