+# Introduction
+
+[DataFusion](https://arrow.apache.org/datafusion/) is an extensible query execution framework, written in Rust, that uses Apache Arrow as its in-memory format.
+
+When you want to extend your Rust project with [SQL support](https://arrow.apache.org/datafusion/user-guide/sql/sql_status.html), a DataFrame API, or the ability to read and process Parquet, JSON, Avro or CSV data, DataFusion is definitely worth checking out.
+
+DataFusion supports both a SQL and DataFrame API for building logical query plans as well as a sophisticated query optimizer and execution engine capable of parallel execution against memory, CSV, Parquet, Avro and JSON.
+
+The Apache Arrow team is pleased to announce the DataFusion 7.0.0 release. This covers 4 months of development work
+and includes 195 commits from the following 37 distinct contributors.

+
+# Summary
+
+There have been significant improvements across the board since the 6.0 release which are summarized below.
+
+- DataFusion Crate
+  - The DataFusion crate is in the process of being split into multiple crates in order to decrease compilation times and improve the development experience. To start, datafusion-common (the core DataFusion components) and datafusion-expr (DataFusion expressions, functions, and operators) will be split out.  There will be additional splits after the 7.0 release.
+- Performance Improvements and Optimizations
+  - Arrow’s dyn scalar kernels are now used which enable more efficient operations on DictionaryArrays [#1685](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1685)
+  - Switch from std::sync::Mutex to parking_lot::Mutex [#1720](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1720)
+- New Features
+  - Better support for limiting resource usage
+    - MemoryMananger and DiskManager [#1526](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1526)
+    - Out of core sort [#1526](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1526)
+    - New metrics
+      - `Gauge` and `CurrentMemoryUsage` [#1682](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1682)
+      - `Spill_count` and `spilled_bytes` [#1641](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1641)
+  - New math functions
+    - `Approx_quantile` [#1529](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1539)
+    - `stddev` and `variance` (sample and population) [#1525](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1525)
+    - `corr` [#1561](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1561)
+  - Support decimal type [#1394](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1394)[#1407](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1407)[#1408](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1408)[#1431](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1431)[#1483](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1483)[#1554](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1554)[#1640](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1640)
+  - Support for evolved schemas [#1622](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1622)[#1709](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/1709)

Review comment:
       That's right. Merging already worked for everything except Parquet
