Hi all,

A quick update of the roadmap for Akka Remoting. Lightbend's core Akka team
will be able to start working on a new implementation for Akka Remoting
next sprint, which starts April 4. We will then start with describing the
goals and overall design ideas and share with you.

We are interested in something based on UDP, and Aeron
<https://github.com/real-logic/Aeron> looks promising, but we have not
decided anything yet.

Do you think UDP is acceptable in most production environments? Of course
we would implement the message ordering and "reliable" delivery on top.
When is TCP required from an infrastructure perspective?

Regarding the current Netty based implementation we would like to touch it
as little as possible to avoid risks of introducing new bugs. Therefore we
will not update to Netty 3. When we have a stable replacement the old
implementation will be removed.

We are looking forward to working on this important area, and community
involvement is very much welcome.

Cheers,
Patrik
