> I like the idea to have a cli frontend that is query engine agnostic (datafusion, duckdb), table agnostic (iceberg, delta), file agnostic (parquet, lance), and even more. This sounds like "Ibis" for CLIs and I think is a neat idea However, I am personally not likely to work on such a thing -- I am far more interested in showing off / using the DataFusion execution engine more broadly, in part as I think it will drive more use and thus more contributions back to DataFusion So therefore I am not opposed to creating some sort of pluggable backend query engine system, but I think I would like to focus on the DataFusion one. I am thinking what I will try to do if no one beats me to it is to sketch out what a `dfdb` repo might look like 1. basically copy the datafusion-cli's code / docs into its own repo 2. polish up the code / APIs perhaps to make it clearer how to register custom functions, table providers, etc -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
