> Sorry for the late reply. I'm not sure whether we should fix reading or totally prohibit writing `repeated primitive fields without LIST annotation as a list type`. This is a gray area from the spec and should be discussed prior to the fix. The file added to parquet-testing is for interoperability across parquet implementations to have the same behavior. I have opened [apache/parquet-format#466](https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/pull/466) to clarify it. Than you @wgtmac -- given there are parquet files (such as what is in parquet-format) that do have this structure, I think supporting reads makes sense. If we decide it would be good to prohibit writers fro writing such files that sounds like a good follow on to me, but it still adds value to parquet-rs to read such files from my perspective. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
