Re: [DISCUSSION] Should we have a place to host improvement proposals?
Hi OK, so +1 for me to have a "proposals space". The details can be discussed later.

Re: [DISCUSSION] Should we have a place to host improvement proposals?
Hi, JB: Thanks for replying. I want to use this thread to discuss whether we need a central place for improvement proposals first. We can talk about the exact format if the community is interested in it later. On Fri, Oct 13, 2023 at 4:52 PM Jean-Baptiste Onofré wrote: > Hi Renjie, > > I like the idea.

Re: [DISCUSSION] Should we have a place to host improvement proposals?
Hi Renjie, I like the idea. I would propose to rename https://iceberg.apache.org/roadmap/ as https://iceberg.apache.org/technology/ and put the proposal here with the current status and eventually linking PR. I propose to rework the roadmap page as it doesn't seem up to date and should contain the proposals. +1 for me. The same about the email I sent yesterday regarding Community Meeting Notes, I think it would be great to have the notes in a space on https://iceberg.apache.org/community/.
