Hey Ryan, Thanks for putting this together. I noticed we don't have a "Rust" section in the Project Activity section. I think we can add a few lines based on the community syncs <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YuGhUdukLP5gGiqCbk0A5_Wifqe2CZWgOd3TbhY3UQg/edit?tab=t.0> doc.
We might also want to add a few lines about the spec changes, also based on the community syncs doc. Things like variant type support, geo type support, allow equality deletes in row lineage, REST catalog freshness check, etc. In the Community Health section, it would be great to include the meetup Youtube channel, https://www.youtube.com/@IcebergMeetup Best, Kevin Liu On Tue, Mar 11, 2025 at 2:30 PM Ryan Blue <rdb...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > It’s time for a board report again.
