Consul is also a much thought out project. So i am loving what Kaushal has proposed - great stuff. One can easily write C bindings to Go! so it isn't a tight requirement. Gluster management daemon should be really thin while it can really serve simple requests - Also Gluster management becomes an API but abstracted - This API allows for making Gluster management daemon extensible in various languages too - for example writing a Javascript UI which provides a tighter coupling with Gluster management API. Indeed a great step in this direction +1 -- Religious confuse piety with mere ritual, the virtuous confuse regulation with outcomes _______________________________________________ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@xxxxxxxxxxx http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
