The C# library translates the other timestamp logical types to the [DateTime](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.datetime?view=netstandard-2.0) and [DateTimeOffset](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.datetimeoffset?view=netstandard-2.0) types; however, those have a precision of 100 nanoseconds, so they wouldn't be able to represent all the `timestamp-nanos` and `local-timestamp-nanos` values exactly. I guess the library would then have to define new types for these purposes, with explicit conversion operators to and from DateTime. (The conversion to DateTime should be explicit because it can lose precision, and the conversion from DateTime should be explicit because it can overflow.) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
