Prabhant Singh commented on ARROW-8679:
---------------------------------------
Hi,
Is there any progress on this issue? or will it ever be supported.
Otherwise is there any recommended way to deal with sparse data in the
meantime? ie convert to dense data or something else?

> I've seen that Pandas sparse series was not supported in pyarrow since it was
> planned to be deprecated. In Pandas 1.0.1 they released a stable version of
> sparse array and as far as I know it is not planned to be deprecated anymore.
> Are you planning to support sparse series in next versions of pyarrow ?
