Review Comment:
   ```suggestion
   
   Flight SQL has been extended with a method to get type metadata ([ARROW-15313](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15313)) and column metadata in returned schemas ([ARROW-15314](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15314), [ARROW-16064](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16064)) New documentation is available describing Flight and Flight SQL, along with several Cookbook recipes ([ARROW-14698](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-14698), [ARROW-16065](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16065)).
   
   The C++ libraries now support UCX as a network transport ([ARROW-15706](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15706)), and the APIs have been refactored to allow other transports to be implemented ([ARROW-15282](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15282)). UCX support is experimental and still subject to change. Many of the APIs have been refactored to use the `arrow::Result` type, and the original variants have been deprecated ([ARROW-16032](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16032)). Support for gRPC >= 1.43 has been added ([ARROW-15551](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15551)).
