As far as 3.0 - I think it would make sense to start working on it in 2.x versions as an `@Experimental` API. We shouldn't remove the existing IOs prior to a major version change, but it would be fine to start work on an alternative. This would be similar to (and related to) the `SchemaIOProvider` concept we had a Google intern work on last summer: - https://s.apache.org/schemaio-development-guide - http://s.apache.org/beam-schema-io Would you have any interest in working on an effort like this? CC: @robinyqiu a design like this would be relevant for your work on IOs ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
