Hi JB,
Thanks for driving the proposal of Polaris. I have some questions about the PolarisProposal as follows: 1. Is Polaris positioning oriented towards a unified catalog of data lakes and computing engines, which has mentioned as "Polaris is a catalog for data lakes" and "Polaris is connected with Apache Iceberg, Apache Hadoop, Apache Spark, Apache Flink, and potentially Apache Hudi, Apache XTable, …"? 2. If Polaris is only a catalog for data lakes, why not directly provide a catalog wrapper and implementaion of Gravitino catalog in Gravitino project?
