> There are three TODOs, (as noted in the code as well) let me know if you think any should be done on this PR: I think those are certainly fine to leave as a follow-up. For me, I think API wise I still have the questions: - What do we want to use as the default return type for slicing a variable size list? Return a fixed size list (padding with nulls to get the correct length), or keep a variable size list (not padding with nulls, just slice until the end if stop > size of a list element) - For slicing fixed size list arrays, what do we want to do when slicing until after the end (stop > list size)? Padding with nulls and always return a fixed size list of size `stop - start`, or slice until the end (Python slice semantics) and return a fixed size list of size `min(list_size, stop -start)` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
