Hello Jiayi,

Please note that all decisions will be communicated publicly via the
mailing list, and I will also keep the mailing list updated on progress.

This is good, but I don't think it's sufficient.

The "Apache Way" stresses Open Communications:

"""as a virtual organization, the ASF requires all communications related to code and decision-making to be publicly accessible to ensure asynchronous collaboration, as necessitated by a globally-distributed community."""

(from https://www.apache.org/theapacheway/)

Making decisions during sync video calls does not allow for asynchronous collaboration. Designing a new Parquet footer is foundational for the project, we should not skimp on proper collaboration practices.

Regards

Antoine.
