+     What is Apache Arrow?
+     ---------------------
+     Apache Arrow is a columnar in-memory analytics layer designed to
+     accelerate big data. It houses a set of canonical in-memory
+     representations of flat and hierarchical data along with multiple
+     language-bindings for structure manipulation. It also provides
+     low-overhead streaming and batch messaging, zero-copy interprocess
+     communication (IPC), and vectorized in-memory analytics
+     libraries. Languages currently supported include C, C++, C#, Go, Java,
+     JavaScript, Julia, MATLAB, Python, R, Ruby, and Rust.
+
+     What is Apache Arrow ADBC?
+     --------------------------
+     ADBC is a database access abstraction for Arrow-based applications. It
+     provides a cross-language API for working with databases while using
+     Arrow data, providing an alternative to APIs like JDBC and ODBC for
+     analytical applications. For more, see [4].
+
+     Please report any feedback to the mailing lists ([5], [6]).
