Dear all,

The repo merge is nearly ready to go modulo some fixes to CI. There
will be a number of follow up issues to re-establish the various
(untested) build procedures in parquet-cpp

https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/2453

I would like to merge this by EOD Wednesday 9/5, or Thursday at
latest, so we can get the patches from apache/parquet-cpp moved over
and avoid any disruption to development process. If there are any
comments please let me know

- Wes
