feature request: support for flatbuffers

[allen-munsch]

Here's a first attempt.

If needed I can attend the working group meeting to discuss.

Edit:

I've removed the initial first attempt. In favor of opening a PR on the flatbuffers repo itself. To adhere to the proprietary path.

@allen-munsch I'm so sorry - this one slipped thru the cracks. I'll add to to next week's call.

[allen-munsch]

@duglin no owrries, i registered via https://www.cncf.io/calendar/ to the meeting on the 30th, is that the right place?

[duglin]

@allen-munsch honestly I can't keep up with the cncf's calendar - it seems flakey and every-changing. Here's our agenda doc that include the info on our weekly call: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OVF68rpuPK5shIHILK9JOqlZBbfe91RNzQ7u_P7YCDE/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.6xidlvhv1goi
(Thursdays at 12pm US eastern). I think most people just manually add it to their calendars.

[allen-munsch]

@duglin I've opened a draft PR on the flatbuffers repo to discuss adding a spec over there.

PR: google/flatbuffers#8768

[duglin]

I'm going to suggest that we close this issue since we have the PR (1019) as a reminder.

Anyone object?

[jskeet]

Fine by me.

[allen-munsch]

Thank you both for the help, i went ahead and closed it.

[duglin]

Agreed to close on 1/12 call
