> The Arrow C data interface and C stream interface docs say that these
> interfaces are only for sharing data within a single process. This is not
> exactly correct. The fundamental requirement for using the C data interface
> and C stream interface is not that the components be necessarily running in
> the same process. It’s that they are able to pass around a pointer and access
> the same memory address space. Let's make some minor changes to the docs to
> clarify this.
