Will Jones commented on ARROW-15135:
------------------------------------
There is no C++ (or Rust) implementation of Iceberg; the main implementation is
in Java. My impression is that writers for these table formats are about 10x
more complex than the readers (but I say that having implemented a reader and
not a writer :)). I think it's reasonable to start by creating the reader +
dataset logic within Arrow, though once we get to the writer I do have some
questions as to whether there should just be a C++ implementation managed by
the Iceberg project.
