> For example, it was through your draft I started to think about what would happen to ScalarValue in such a design. It is widely used in physical-level machinery, so contemplating a change to logical types for that object could be problematic. Maybe we should have a logical scalar value and a physical one, maybe we will think of something else. But all these thinking was induced by your exploratory work, so I think we should complete it. Then we can decide what to do with the full findings. I agree with this basic approach -- my feeling is that introducing logical types successfully will require some concerted effort from existing committers and people with expertise with the current code to help it along. @notfilippo is doing a great job but unless we find them help / support I think the project would struggle to be successful -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
