Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-3102:
-------------------------------------

Multiple questions here:

* Where to develop and maintain code?
* How to build this particular component?

When it comes to middlewares like this that are interacting with a C-library, 
it might be nice for them to be unburdened by the C++ build toolchain, but to 
do that you need to build the Arrow data structures in C. I'd be interested in 
having a small portable C Arrow implementation that provides some builders and 
exports the C data interface that projects like this could develop against. See 
also ARROW-1851

An alternative of course would be to just build this as an add-on/contrib 
component for the C++ project.
