My (personal) North ⭐ : 1000 projects are built using DataFusion 📈

It would be great for other contributors to DataFusion to to make them visible somehow as well 🙏 (feel free to copy / modify the format of this ticket)

My (personal) plans for this week

Projects I plan to help actively help review / plan

Algorithm for (my) prioritizing PR reviews

Note there are many committers who can and do review and merge PRs, so this is not the priorities of the project as a whole, just the approximate algorithm I use to prioritize my own time.

Priority:

  1. Bug fixes (where something is just incorrect), especially regressions (where it used to work and now does not)
  2. Improvements directly related to features needed for InfluxDB (my employer)
  3. Documentation and test improvements (I view these as very strategically important)
  4. PRs that I think are strategically important
  5. Other new features / additions to functionality (note this is the lowest)

The top strategically important projects in my head are:

Thus, if you are interested in contributing to DataFusion and are interested in a fast turn around time I would recommend looking into bug fixes / test improvements / documentation or the projects named above.

If you propose adding new functionality, especially if the PR is large/complex and not connected to a wider need, the review cycle will likely be longer. You can make it a shorter cycle by looking at the comments on other recent PRs and following the same model (e.g. ensure there are tests in sqllogictest for example, the CI passes, includes documentation, etc)

Background

The idea of this ticket is make my plans for DataFusion visible, largely for my own personal organizational needs, but also to:

  1. Communicate / coordinate in the community
  2. Help provide an interesting summary of what is happening in DataFusion this week
