Hi, All. I'd like to propose to cut Apache ORC 1.6.6 release as the first backward compatible version for Apache Spark. To achieve the backward compatibility, we resolved most backward compatibility issues after Apache ORC 1.6.5 releases and started to publish SNAPSHOTs.
ORC-689: Add GitHubAction job to publish snapshot ORC-685: Add `ReaderImpl.extractFileTail` back ORC-677: Add a deprecated legacy constructor SargApplier back ORC-676. Add getRawDataSizeFromColIndices back to ReaderImpl ORC-671. Add OrcTail.getStripeStatistics back for backward compatibility ORC-669. Reduce breaking changes in ReaderImpl.java As of today, the snapshot release passed Apache Spark and Apache Iceberg UTs. https://github.com/dongjoon-hyun/spark/pull/41 https://github.com/dongjoon-hyun/iceberg/pull/1 I start to roll 1.6.6-rc0. After 1.6.6 release, 1.6.7 will focus on Apache Hive. Thanks, Dongjoon.
