Hi Parquet gurus

It seems Parquent 1.9.0 has been blocking for nearly a year,
any plans to continue the process? Is the project still being actively maintained?

Ferdinand Xu / @winningsix:
Seems there are still some blocking issues unresolved tracked in this JIRA.

Gaurav Shah:
any roadmap on the release date ? trying to see if we can make use of parquet 1.9 in spark 2.0

Julien Le Dem / @julienledem:
@rdblue is making a RC soon

[asfimport]

Ryan Blue / @rdblue:
The vote thread for RC1 is open. Please take a look at the candidate and vote!

Zoltan Ivanfi / @zivanfi:
Can this JIRA be closed? It seems to be obsolete as 1.9.0 is already out.

Dong Jiang:
Curious about the status of PARQUET-686. So 1.9.0 is out even though the blocking issue PARQUET-686 is unresolved? Doesn't sound like a blocking issue at all?

Julien Le Dem / @julienledem:
[~djiangxu] I have updated PARQUET-686: jiras should be closed automatically when we merge the PR. This one fell through: de99127
