Hi parquet developers, I’m wondering if anyone consumes the `parquet-scala` dependency in your project, the module exists for a long time but with rare code change[1], all recently commit applied to this module is just dependency upgrading / build fixing [2].
I suggest retiring the parquet-scala module, or even dropping it directly. The module only contains one `Dsl` class[3], which is thin wrapper of the Java API, users are easy to copy and embed it if we drop the parquet-scala module. Additionally, it's rare to publish a scala lib that only supports a single scala binary version, most scala libs support 2~3 scala binary versions in each version.
