Hi Gang,
Assuming we do want to adopt this in Parquet, I would very much recommend separate repositories for this. Putting the spec inside `parquet-format` breeds confusion, IMHO, and may discourage third parties from considering this standalone, non-Parquet, data format. (but for the same reason, I would recommand a separate project as well :-)) Regards Antoine.
