Hi everyone, I’d like to propose starting a monthly Spark community sync to discuss open issues, ongoing proposals, and design topics that would benefit from real-time discussion.
The idea is similar to the current Iceberg community sync: a one-hour recurring meeting with a shared agenda doc where people can add topics ahead of time. This could help us make progress on larger design discussions, clarify open questions earlier, and make it easier for contributors and reviewers to align across different areas of Spark. The sync would be open to the community, and the agenda doc could be used to track topics, notes, and follow-ups. Topics could include SPIPs, larger PRs, release-related discussions, cross-project integration work, or any other issues where live discussion would be useful. Would others be interested in this? If there is enough interest, I’m happy to help set up the agenda doc and propose an initial monthly time slot. Thanks, Huaxin
