[R-pkg-devel] libarrow

[Bryce Mecum]

The work in progress to add libarrow to MXE is located at [1]. I don't
think it's complete but I'm sharing it here in case it's a useful
starting point for someone. Continuing this work would be welcome.

Thang: Feel free to file an issue on the Arrow issue tracker [2] or
email the user@ mailing list [3] if you get stuck.
