Some of the motiviations for wanting Comet to become a top-level project: Comet is different from the other subprojects, which are about extending DataFusion: - datafusion-python provides Python bindings for DataFusion - datafusion-java provides Java bindings for DataFusion - datafusion-distributed extends DataFusion execution to a cluster Comet is an accelerator for Apache Spark that uses DataFusion behind the scenes. It made a lot of sense to start out as a DataFusion subproject because of the overlap in contributors, but now that Comet is mature, it would be beneficial to have a separate PMC and it would make it easier to nominate committers who are active in Comet but not so much in core DataFusion. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
