   My personal hope is that arrow2 can be donated to the ASF as a `0.x` project. Given how widely used arrow2 is, I believe that it is becoming the de-facto implementation anyway and IMHO there would be benefits to having Apache governance.
   
   For many of us who work for large corporations, we have to seek permission to contribute to open source projects. For example, I have permission to contribute to Apache Arrow and its subprojects, but I cannot contribute to arrow2 while it is an independent project (not that I would necessarily be contributing anyway, but others may be in a similar position).
   
   I see no reason why the stable arrow crate cannot continue to exist and evolve independently of arrow2, assuming that there are contributors motivated to do so.
