Cassandra has been originally packaged by folks in our team, in the time we had

effort, but turned to be too big burden recently (depends on python2, missing
java deps).
From that reason, with sadness in my heart, I'd like to announce a plan to
orphan the cassandra package in Fedora. So, this is obviously a call for
everybody who would like to take it over -- let me know. There is also an idea
to build it as a module, which could help us with missing deps, but that would
be done later and does not change the plan for orphaning.
Hey Honza, is there any estimation on when exactly you plan to do this?
As cassandra runs on Python 2 and doesn't even install, I think we should remove
it sooner than later. After orphaning, it stays 6 weeks in limbo, there's plenty
of time for somebody who'd like to take it.

I'm curious as well.
