>
> While Drill does not currently have an int96 type, it is supported by the
> parquet format and we should be able to read files that contain columns of
> this type. For now we will read the data into a varbinary and users will have
> to use existing convert_from functions or write their own to interpret the
> type of data actually stored. One example is the Impala timestamp format
> which is encoded in an int96 column.
