Hi, I've just created this issue and worked on it. Created the PR https://github.com/apache/parquet-mr/pull/517 I'd like to keep the history of the files so the PR contains a merge commit and then another one to have it working as a submodule. What do you think?
If you guys agree with the approach, we would also like to deprecate all the classes in parquet-format before creating a minor release. (We can remove them in the next release.) I've just realized that merge commit in github is "not enabled for this repository". Any suggestions how we can workaround this? Thanks a lot, Gabor
