This is a thread for discussing a release of parquet-format. The last release appears to be 2.6.0 from September 2018:
https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/releases The diff from then until now is https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/compare/df6132b94f273521a418a74442085fdd5a0aa009...4157b4c6132086e318943f1898523f7dcb013f35 It's my understanding we'll need a parquet-format release before a parquet-mr and/or parquet-cpp release[0]. In the most recent discussion thread on this, there were two concerns raised that are not yet addressed: 1. Should Bloom filters use a different hash function by default? 2. Should we devise an automated way to test cross-language compatibility of parquet files, especially for the new Bloom filter spec? I am suggesting a release despite these open issues based on my belief that it's reasonable to handle these after a parquet-format release. A final note: although I am suggesting the release, it looks to me like the release recipe[1] can only be executed by a committer, which I am not. This means even if there is consensus on a release, someone else would need to do the legwork. Thanks, Jim [0] This code now lives in https://github.com/apache/arrow/tree/master/cpp/src/parquet, I believe. [1] https://parquet.apache.org/documentation/how-to-release/
