SQLite-parquet-vtable extension

[jgranduel]

Hi,

thanks for your project again, and the incubator parts!
I've come across this extension for reading Apache parquet files sqlite-parquet-vtable which could be an incubator candidate, if license and author allows for it. There's no release of it apart from source.

best regards

Hello there! Thank you for your interest ツ The parquet extension looks great, but it has a lot of external dependencies. sqlean scope is currently limited to extensions without dependencies. Citing the readme:

We want every extension to be self-contained. So we limit the project scope to extensions without external dependencies (other than the C standard library and SQLite itself).

We may extend the scope later, but not before we deal with existing extensions first.

Perfect choice of course! I had overlooked the readme. Thanks

Sure 🙏 I'll reopen the issue if we decide to extend the project scope.
