Re: REST API?
There are no plans to move to Maven for 2 reasons: 1) a majority of committers favour Ant; 2) if it aint broke, don't fix it.

Re: REST API?
To give everyone an update... I was able to take what Gary had and update it to run on trunk. I like the native integration, as opposed to layering it on top of Hector. It's working out well. I layered in JAX-RS to replace the hand parsing of the url, and the handlers. I have reads and writes working through the StorageProxy, but I think I'm going to raise it up one layer to take advantage of ThriftValidations. (but still using direct method invocation instead of the thift client) I added unit tests for the read/write of columns. I'm going to add a few other operations (add/drop keyspace, add/drop CF). Then it should be in a state where I can share it. -brian On Mon, Oct 10, 2011 at 10:06 PM, Jeremy Hanna jeremy.hanna1...@gmail.comwrote: Brian, If you end up doing something with the rest api and making it available/open source, please post again either here or on the user list.
