Discussion:

Arrow 12.0.0 release
- RC0 has been proposed [1]
- There were a lot of CI failures at the time of the code freeze so it
took longer than usual to resolve these and generate RC0; thanks to
everyone who helped
- There is one outstanding question regarding an issue with pandas
2.0.1 [2] and there is a fix that skips the failing test [3]
- It is unclear whether we should create a new RC that skips this
test, or whether it is sufficient to release the current RC since
pandas will fix the issue on their end
- There are a couple of other minor issues that we don’t think are blockers


Support for non-CPU memory in Arrow C data interface [4][5]
- We are seeking input that addresses the questions posed and gives
concrete recommendations


Questions about usage of the new fixed-shape tensor canonical extension type [6]
- Can it be written to a Parquet file and read back in? If so, what
Parquet logical and physical types does it use?
- Is it recommended for use with image data, or should we use byte
arrays instead?


Status of proposed integration tests for C data interface [7]
- Has not yet been implemented


Suggested topics for next meeting
- Discuss priorities for Arrow 13.0.0 release
