> [@mbrobbel](https://github.com/mbrobbel) and [@kylebarron](https://github.com/kylebarron) -- this item was brought up as something required to implement Varaint support ([#6736](https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/6736)). Do you by any chance have any additional information on what is required / how it might be implemented you can share (so we can make progress)? > > cc [@PinkCrow007](https://github.com/PinkCrow007) My thinking was: given an Arrow field with an extension type and writing this field to Parquet and then reading it again (using the provied Arrow writers/readers in the `parquet` crate) should retain the extension type information i.e. after reading this field (from Parquet) it should still have the same extension type. From briefly looking at this I think we can implement this by replacing some `parquet` impls to operate on fields instead of types. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
