hi folks, It does not do much yet, but I added instructions for building and installing the Python Arrow library on Linux and OS X (henceforth: "pyarrow" or PyArrow):
https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/python/doc/INSTALL.md You can expect a lot of new code to show up in there (including more library dependencies, like Parquet-cpp for Parquet file support) over the next month, so I'll keep the instructions updated as things develop. As you kick the tires, feel free to share your feedback here or on JIRA! Patches welcome, too. best, Wes
