Hi: Thanks Xuanwo for raising this.
As mentioned in another thread, I think using iceberg-rust in pyiceberg is a good idea. About this idea, would you have a more detailed design? For example, where should the pyo3 codes live, in iceberg-rust or in pyiceberg? What kind of interface should we provide to pyiceberg, FileIO or OpenDAL? I think this is a good first step moving forward to make pyiceberg backed iceberg-rust. In the future we can replace components gradually.
