Thanks Walaa for trying to move things along. However I don't think it's a good idea to start a separate discussion about the metadata for materialized views because we already had this discussion and reached consensus in this google doc:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UnhldHhe3Grz8JBngwXPA6ZZord1xMedY5ukEhZYF-A/edit?usp=sharing
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UnhldHhe3Grz8JBngwXPA6ZZord1xMedY5ukEhZYF-A/edit?usp=sharing>

Once the draft is finalized we can adopt the PR to reflect the consensus from the google doc.

Best wishes,

Jan

Thanks Steven. I feel it is needed so the MV spec is not scattered across the table and view spec pages. We may add a reference in each respective properties section.

    Walaa, thanks for initiating the next step.

    With the agreed model of separate view and storage table, I am
    wondering if a separate materialized view spec page is needed.
    E.g., the new view metadata (view-materialized and
    view-storage-table) is probably good to be added to the view page
    directly to avoid information scattering. The same can be said
    about the storage table metadata.

    We may keep the separate materialized view page to document
    motivation, freshness semantics, etc..

        Hi Everyone,

        Thanks again for participating in the modeling discussion [1].
        Since the outcome of this discussion was to model materialized
        views as separate objects, an Iceberg view and a table, I
        think the next step should be discussing the metadata details
        for each object. I have created a PR
        https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/10280 with an initial
        spec improvement. Please feel free to review it and leave
        feedback there.
