> Could I possibly inquire as to your use-case? I'm working on [an Arrow implementation](https://github.com/mbrobbel/narrow) for use-cases where array schemas are known at compile time. This allows [deriving](https://github.com/mbrobbel/narrow/blob/main/tests/derive.rs) statically typed arrays for Rust types that provide efficient array-of-structs to struct-of-arrays conversion - and vice versa. > Is there some reason you wish to stick with using BufferBuilder and MutableBuffer? No. The arrays are generic over their inner buffer types, so to provide interop with `arrow-rs` buffers they need to implement some traits to make using them as buffers for these arrays possible. The next step is interop with `arrow-array` to allow zero-copy conversion to the array types of the `arrow-array` crate. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
