Attendees -
Mahmut Bulut - Remi Dettai - Andy Grove - Fernando Herrera - Jorn Horstmann - Andrew Lamb - Jorge Leitao - Mike Seddon Topics Discussed - Release process - There is an email thread "[Proposal] Modify release process to vote only on source release" that we should participate in - Backwards Compatibility / API Guarantees - We had a discussion about this but no decisions made. We will discuss again next time. - Serializing DataFusion query plans - Other projects have needs around serializing query plans so that they can be sent between networked processes. Ballista has an implementation already based on protobuf and we discussed the merits of donating this to Arrow. Another approach would be to use a Rust-native approach such as the serde or Cap'n Proto crate, which would have much lower development effort at the cost of only supporting Rust. - PR approval process / policy - We discussed some ideas around formalizing the process around PR reviews, such as how many approvals needed (and by whom) and this may vary across crates. Discussed using github PR templates to suggest to contributors who they should ping on PRs. Also discussed idea of using CODEOWNERS file. - Blog Post for 3.0.0 Release - There is a Google doc where we are drafting the blog post for this release: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HfdmVE9iQcYlWyfk68BN2PcIjAAhRFpuPLsZW6ffy3Y/edit?usp=sharing
