I just wanted to mention that, as part of my ongoing AI explorations, I opened a PR fixing minor issues such as orthography, grammar, and some snippet errors.
It’s a small PR (~200 lines), so it should be quick to review and, hopefully, make it into the next release. https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/pull/572 Best, Ismaël On Fri, May 29, 2026 at 11:06 AM Fokko Driesprong <[email protected]> wrote: > +1 for the release > > I got a small one to bump to the latest version of Thrift to supress a > CVE: https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/pull/570 > > I don't think we should block releases for format since they are pretty > ligthtweight and might unblock downstream consumers. > > Thanks, > Fokko > > On 2026/05/29 02:40:14 Micah Kornfield wrote: > > I need to do another pass on the C++ implementation.
