---------------------------------------------------------------------

patches 1-3:

1: what bugs will this catch, that patch 3 will not?

2: +1

3: mostly +1, but a quibble about
{code}
-    public static MessageSerializer serializer()
+    public static ICompactSerializer<Message> serializer()
{code}

Is there an actual need to change this?  find-usages of the serializer class in 
intellij is more useful when serializer() is specific.

> There are two components to this.  First, code that will generate the 
> serialized messages.  Second, code that will attempt to read the serialized 
> messages.
> My plan is to commit this to 0.7.1 with generated serialized messages.  Then 
> I will merge that into trunk sans the generation code.  A similar process 
> will need to take place when we branch trunk to create 0.8, etc.  On second 
> thought, maybe it makes sense to keep the generation code and let it morph as 
> the message formats change.
> If the tests ever break in the 0.7 branch, that means we've created a message 
> incompatibility regression that needs to be fixed.  If the tests ever break 
> in trunk (post CASSANDRA-1015), it means that something in trunk has changed 
> message serialization compatibility that will need to be restored (via 
> whatever process is used for 1015).
