### Describe the enhancement requested Per Parquet's requirements, we need at least two reference implementations to finalize the Variant logical type specification and here are the current status: - Java already has the encoding and shredding implementations in place: [Variant Decoding](https://github.com/apache/parquet-java/pull/3197) [Variant Encoding](https://github.com/apache/parquet-java/pull/3202) [Variant Shredding Writer](https://github.com/apache/parquet-java/issues/3223) [Variant Shredding Reader](https://github.com/apache/parquet-java/issues/3211) - Go also includes encoding and shredding support: [Variant Encoding/Decoding](https://github.com/apache/arrow-go/pull/344) [Variant Shredding](https://github.com/apache/arrow-go/pull/434) Rust is currently working on the shredding implementation. In addition to these, we already have a full Variant implementation in Apache Iceberg, as well as in some closed-source engines. At this point, I think we have enough implementation coverage to move forward with finalizing the Variant spec. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
