By the way, implementing storage plugins is not so hard :-) Take a look at the docs: http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/snapshot/scala/persistence.html#storage-plugins (I'm linking to snapshot here because in in 2.3.5 (coming soon) persistence includes an persistence plugin TCK – so you can verify if your plugin really works with this out of the box set of tests :-))
