   @sunchao @andygrove (CC @wesm @kszucs @emkornfield) in the past few months 
we haven't had enough review bandwidth on Rust's Parquet implementation (mostly 
relying on Chao for non-trivial reviews), and given the amount of work needed 
for an Arrow writer + the interest so far (I think few people already using 
this fork), I'd like to propose:
   
   * We create a temporary branch in the apache/arrow repo, where the arrow 
writer can temporarily live
   * We can merge changes into the branch, esp if there aren't enough reviewers 
at the time
   * When we're close to a release, we merge what's on the temp branch into the 
branch that's currently called `master` but will be renamed soon 😉 
   
   ITO this PR, I think I've gotten arbitrary nesting covered, but there's a 
lot more work that we can now divide more easily so others can contribute 
better. I'm also unsure of how to test deeply nested arrays directly in the 
code (I had to use Spark because Arrow reader doesn't yet support that).
   
   I'll also bring this up in the mailing list for wider visibility
