Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-2536:
-------------------------------------------

bq. A node shouldn't accept a schema change if the timestamp for the new schema 
would be earlier than its current schema.

You need this with or without the client-side timestamp, though; there's no 
sense in letting people blow their leg off.

And once you have that you don't need to add a client-side timestamp with all 
the PITA-ness that involves.

(And unlike with data modification, I can't think of a use for doing "clever" 
things w/ a client side timesamp.  So pushing it to the client doesn't really 
solve anything, just means you need to sync clocks across more machines.)

>             Project: Cassandra
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Core
>    Affects Versions: 0.8 beta 1
>         Environment: Two node 0.8-beta1 cluster with one seed and JNA.

> If you have two thrift connections open to different nodes and you create a 
> KS using the first, then a CF in that KS using the second, you wind up with a 
> schema disagreement even if you wait/sleep after creating the KS.
> The attached script reproduces the issue using pycassa (1.0.6 should work 
> fine, although it has the 0.7 thrift-gen code).  It's also reproducible by 
> hand with two cassandra-cli sessions.
