Thanks, let’s talk about it in community sync. From: Brian Olsen <bitsondata...@gmail.com> Date: Wednesday, August 9, 2023 at 02:47 To: dev@iceberg.apache.org <dev@iceberg.apache.org> Subject: Re: Location of rust repo Hey Rust folks, tomorrow is the Iceberg Community Sync<https://iceberg.apache.org/community/#iceberg-community-events>. We will be discussing locations of the Iceberg client API locations<https://lists.apache.org/thread/chw53tl0n9jojv3pvhoxwvbon22ot9n8>. While I think everyone is okay with Rust being outside of the main repo, a few of us voiced the consistency concern with go and pyIceberg. I'd like to have a short discussion about going in one direction or the other for all client projects. The one clear disadvantage is that changes affecting both the client and the server will be spread across multiple PRs. This should be rare enough with the clients that it shouldn't matter but let's discuss more tomorrow if you all can attend. Thanks!

I'd probably lean toward having it in the main repo to get more eyes on the PRs, but I think it's primarily up to the people contributing to the project.

The most important point that came up was the location where the rust development should take place. The two options are either to have a separate "iceberg-rust" repository or to create a "rust" folder in the existing apache/iceberg repository. The benefits of a separate repository are separate CI, simpler merging of PRs and a more scalable solution if more languages are added. The benefits of a subfolder in the existing repository are more visibility, easier coordination with the java project and more feedback from the community. The developers currently working on the rust implementation slightly favor a separate repository but would be okay with using the existing repository. It would be great if you could share your opinions on the topic. Maybe this could also be a point for the community sync later today. Hope you're all doing well.
