I think we almost have a consensus about the Materialized View Spec. I brought up one issue with the **pointer to the storage table** that is holding up the progress at the moment. The issue is whether to use the table identifier (catalog, namespace, name) or the table metadata location and therefore whether to register the storage table in the catalog. I've come to realize that using the **table identifier** is the only solution that works for all iceberg catalogs because using the table metadata location doesn't work with the REST catalog. So in my opinion we can settle my issue and use the table identifier as the pointer to the storage table. We would therefore then need to store the storage table in the catalog. With this we should have a consensus on the Spec. I will update the documents and then everyone can have another look. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
