Thank you for bringing this up and for sharing the details, @sheinbergon. You’re right - in Dremio OSS 26.0.0, Iceberg tables created with timestamp columns may be recorded in the metadata as `timestamptz`, even though Dremio only supports `timestamp`. As you noted, this can cause compatibility issues with external readers.
