Thanks a lot for volunteering, Gang!

However it is more than 2 years indeed since the last release I think the 
actual changes since then are more important. There are lots of 
additions/corrections in the spec docs and the thrift file comments which are 
very important but not tightly attached to a format release. I only can see 
PARQUET-2257 that contains an actual change in the thrift structure.

Related to the ongoing effort of PARQUET-2261: I think, we are waiting for a 
PoC implementation. @emkornfield: Do you plan to work on this? 

The question is if we think PARQUET-2257 is urgent enough to not to wait for 
PARQUET-2261 and have an additional release after the latter is ready or we 
shall wait for the PoC implementation and release format after it.
