   > Hi folks,
   > 
   > I am an Apache Flink contributor and we are currently evaluating different 
options for this "small-file" problem. So far we only support the compaction of 
small files when using the StreamingFileSink [1]. Apparently, you have 
implemented your own way of writing files before committing them to Iceberg I'd 
also be happy to know the reason.
   > 
   > We are open to feedback on what you need from Flink to support your use 
case because we are seeing a lot of other projects hitting the same problems 
(Hive, DeltaLake etc.)

   Hi @fapaul! I wanted to firstly thank you for dropping by and introduce 
myself. I believe Ryan already answered your questions, but if you have any 
other questions you can always feel free to reach out to me (or anyone) and I'd 
be happy to help or try to point you in the right place. I often work or review 
Flink-Iceberg related stuff and there are some things I've seen here and there 
that might have been helpful for us or would be helpful for us in the future. 
Hope to collaborate with you over there or in here in the future!  🙂
