Hi all, We just launched a public dataset (backed by a public Iceberg REST Catalog) that can be accessed by any Iceberg-enabled query engine. The goal is for Iceberg developers to begin diving into the ecosystem without bootstrapping a full catalog and creating data.
We'd love to hear any of your thoughts on how we can improve it.
