Discussion: ADBC 0.1.0 release vote - The vote is open [1] - David is looking for more review and votes from PMC members and others Jira to GitHub migration - Work is underway to migrate existing issues from Jira to GitHub - Rok is making progress using the scripts started by Todd - Rok intends to start a discussion on Zulip about this, then test the process, then do the migration next week - Rok is in communication with GitHub about whether we can retain issue authors and comment authors by using GitHub Importer; using “mannequin users” will apparently not work; Jacob is also looking into this and will contact ASF Infra if needed Proposal to move sync call meeting notes into a Google Doc - Will proposed that we share notes from sync calls in a publicly viewable Google Doc instead of in emails to the mailing list [2] - There was a discussion about whether managing edit access to this Google Doc would be difficult and whether we should consider alternatives such as GitHub or Confluence, but the consensus seemed to be that a Google Doc would be best - Further discussion welcome; we tentatively plan to begin using a Google Doc in the next meeting Upcoming 11.0.0 release - We are targeting January 16 for code freeze - Current plan is for Raúl to serve as the release manager and Kou to do the source signing and other tasks that require PMC membership - Some details of the release will depend on whether the Jira to GitHub migration is complete before the release Future directions for the Arrow R package - In the first Arrow R Package dev sync call in December, there was a discussion about R package development priorities after the 11.0.0 release [3] - Ideas included: making it easier to contribute without building the Arrow C++ library from source; using Substrait to represent the query plan that is passed to Acero for execution - Ideas and engagement welcome in the #r-chat Zulip channel and in future R package dev sync calls; the next one will be on January 12 Extending the columnar types specification - As previously discussed [4][5][6][7], work is ongoing to propose and implement new columnar memory layouts in the Arrow specification, based on learnings from other projects such as DuckDB and Velox - The vote to add run-end encoded (REE) arrays to the Arrow format has passed [8] - Ben Kietzman is doing work in a branch of the monorepo [9] to implement a columnar type similar to Velox's StringView; Ben is in discussion with some of the Velox maintainers about the advantages of using offsets instead of pointers [1] https://lists.apache.org/thread/vl9v32341xtmdy2x1n151gll4wgskboy [2] https://lists.apache.org/thread/n4tm2nphoy1qgfbbll8174znkhtfpy3x [3] https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nSIfJw8mfqtvScqvSVqmktpWff80pFmkqiZT7nTtiDo/ [4] https://lists.apache.org/thread/pb3v5p1yzw8y2qqyy224lmog9po39xzp [5] https://lists.apache.org/thread/49qzofswg1r5z7zh39pjvd1m2ggz2kdq [6] https://lists.apache.org/thread/djy8xn28p264vhj8y5rqbgkgwss6oyo1 [7] https://lists.apache.org/thread/dccj1qrozo88qsxx133kcy308qwfwpfm [8] https://lists.apache.org/thread/539scy67qom5t2fkkd1m6fvh5htvwo3s [9] https://github.com/apache/arrow/tree/feature/format-string-view On Tue, Jan 3, 2023 at 10:03 PM Ian Cook <i...@ursacomputing.com> wrote: > > Hi all, > > Our biweekly sync call is tomorrow at 12:00 noon Eastern time. > > The Zoom meeting URL for this and other biweekly Arrow sync calls is: > https://zoom.us/j/87649033008?pwd=SitsRHluQStlREM0TjJVYkRibVZsUT09 > > Alternatively, enter this information into the Zoom website or app to > join the call: > Meeting ID: 876 4903 3008 > Passcode: 958092 > > Thanks, > Ian
