In short I wanted to propose creating a separate git repository under
apache/arrow-* for this purpose, to invite these kinds of
contributions to our project and to help more R&D work happen inside
the Arrow umbrella so we have clean IP lineage. I can't imagine we
would ever make releases from this repository but it could serve as a
flexible place to put stuff (even in branches that are independent
from each other) that may or may not be ready to make its home in one
of our production repositories.
What would be the rules for contributing? Is it just a place where
people store source code?
People would make pull requests like any other repository, but it
would be a bit more free form than our other repositories. The goal is
to get this kind of collaboration (code and the discussions) happening
on Arrow community channels.
This may be helpful. Some of it might also lead to developer/interested
user documentation, perhaps similar to the R-Journal
https://journal.r-project.org/ but with less formality
