Hi @Sean Owen <sro...@gmail.com> , Thanks for reply. We know that Spark community has own release date and plan. We are happy to follow Spark community. But we think it's great if community could add a sentence into the next releasenotes and claim "Spark can support Arm from this release." after we finish the test work on ARM. That's all. We just want a community official caliber that spark support ARM for attracting more users to use spark.
Thank you very much for your patient.
