Hi Dennis, Thanks for starting this discussion!
The proposed time slot is generally OK for me, but what weekday do you have in mind? I wouldn't be able to attend on some weekdays. Other than that, I was wondering how much of the Catalog Federation work would have to be built on top of a yet-to-be-created notification / event system. This topic has been mentioned already in 2 Polaris dev mailing list threads: https://lists.apache.org/thread/48fczg6okw9mos94o90tr347fbz9qc3b https://lists.apache.org/thread/03yz5wolkvy8l7rbcwjnqdq1bl8p065v Besides, you also sparked a very interesting discussion on the Iceberg dev mailing list a while ago where these 2 topics were intertwined: https://lists.apache.org/thread/zcv6qm9ysknrhfpg093qgnrkrolptcht So, maybe one of the first items that we need to discuss here is the notification mechanism to use to synchronize between catalogs. Wdyt?
