   > Just wanted to say that I am really happy to see this! We are looking at using BigLake Metastore and having direct integration in Spark would be a big plus.
   > 
   > One question: what is needed to allow PyIceberg to interface with BigLake Metastore iceberg catalog? I.e., does PyIceberg need a special catalog implementation too? It seems like perhaps it would for writing to the catalog, but if I understand correctly it might be able to read the catalog as if it were a Hive Metastore?
   
   Thanks Matt for your interest. PyIceberg needs an integration here (https://github.com/apache/iceberg/tree/master/python/pyiceberg/catalog) using BigLake Python client (https://cloud.google.com/python/docs/reference/biglake/latest). It has a low priority now. Please send a feature request to biglake-help@google.com to bump its priority up on our end.
