Re: Seeking a small group to package Apache Arrow (was: Bug#970021: RFP: apache-arrow -- cross-language development platform for in-memory analytics)

liborcus supports this (Apache Parquet) if built with Apache Arrow. And
thus makes LibreOffice being able to handle it.
I didn't invest any time in Apache Arrow since I am already too low on
time anyway and I deemed it too a "low popularity" thing anyway.
So this is a plea for anyone looking for something really helpful to
do: it would be great to have a group of developers finally package
this!
Indeed.
There was some initial work done (see the RFP bug report for
details: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=970021),
but that is fairly old now. As Apache Arrow supports numerous
languages, it may well benefit from having a group of developers with
different areas of expertise to build it. (Or perhaps it would make
more sense to split the upstream source into a collection of different
Debian source packages for the different supported languages. I don't
know.)
Would definitely make transitions easier.
Unfortunately I don't have the capacity to devote any time to
it myself.
Dito.
Regards,
Rene
