Michal Šenkýř commented on SPARK-18891:
---------------------------------------
Thanks. Yes, I know about the Maps issue and I will be happy to continue on to Map support.
However in [PR #16541|https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/16541] I tried to use a better
deserialization method. In order to make the code for Maps consistent with that of Seqs I
am waiting for how that turns out before I start on that.
