   ## Boilerplate Overview
   The idea of this ticket is make my plans for DataFusion visible, largely for 
my own personal organizational needs, but also to:
   1. Try some different ways to communicate / coordinate in the community 
   2. Help provide an interesting summary of what is happening in DataFusion 
this week
   
   *It would be great if anyone else who has plans like this for DataFusion 
could try to make them visible somehow as well* 🙏  (feel free to copy / modify 
the format)
   
   ## My (personal) plans for this week
   - [ ] Work on more advanced pruning predicates 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/7869#issuecomment-1872530149
   - [ ] Work on a blog post about DataFusion: 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-site/pull/457
   - [ ] Prepare next steps for making function packages more modular 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/8045
   
   ## Project Queue (list of future projects)
   - [ ] Statistics: https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/8227 
(specifically, https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/8078)
   
   
   ## Projects I plan to prioritize reviewing / helping
   - [ ] Memory explosion in HashJoin outputs: 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/7848  from @korowa 
   - [ ] Improve planning speed 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/5637 with @matthewmturner 
   - [ ] Making function packages more modular: 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/8045 (looking for help)
   
   # Algorithm for (my) prioritizing PR reviews
   Note there are many [committers](https://arrow.apache.org/committers/) who 
can and do review and merge PRs, so this is not the priorities of the project 
as a whole, just the approximate algorithm I am using
   
   Priority:
   1. Bug fixes (where something is just incorrect), especially regressions 
(where it used to work and now does not)
   2. Improvements directly related to features needed for InfluxDB (my 
employer)
   3. Documentation and test improvements (I view these as very strategically 
important)
   4. PRs that I think are strategically important
   5. Other new features / additions to functionality
   
   The current strategically important projects in my head are:
   
   * Making function packages modular and easier to mix/match: 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/8045 
   * [Getting started guide for new users (who want to use DataFusion in their 
project) ](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/7014) 
   * [Improving performance of aggregation 
](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/7000) - especially high 
cardinality groupings, where we still lag state of the art by 2x
   
   Thus, if you are interested in contributing to DataFusion and are interested 
in a fast turn around time I would recommend looking into bug fixes / test 
improvements / documentation / etc. 
   
   If you propose adding new functionality, the review cycle will likely be 
longer. You can make it a shorter cycle by looking at the comments on other 
recent PRs and following the same model (e.g. ensure there are tests in 
sqllogictest for example, the CI passes, includes documentation, etc)
