### Describe the usage question you have. Please include as many useful details as possible. Hi, I have a use case where I might need to consume e.g. Arrow v16 data from API 'X' but then return it in Arrow v18 to make it compatible with API 'Y'. I understand this should be possible due to Arrow's [backward compatibility](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Versioning.html#backward-compatibility). Although a very simplified example, the following is not feasible in Go: ```go import ( arrowv16 "github.com/apache/arrow/go/v16/arrow" arrowv18 "github.com/apache/arrow-go/v18/arrow" ) func main() { var recv16 arrowv16.Record var recv18 arrowv18.Record recv18 = recv16 // compile error } ``` Is there a recommended way to handle this sort of scenario? ### Component(s) Release -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
