> Currently, the only thing we keep in system tables about other peers is their
> token and IP addresses. We should probably also record the new ring_id, but
> since CASSANDRA-4018 makes system table easily queriable, may it could be
> worth adding some more information (basically most of what we gossip could be
> a candidate (schema UUID, status, C* version, ...)) as a simple way to expose
> the ring state to users (even if it's just a "view" of the ring state from
> one specific node I believe it's still nice).
> Of course that means storing information that may not be absolutely needed by
> the server, but I'm not sure there is much harm to that.
> Note that doing this cleanly may require changing the schema of current
> system tables but as long as we do that in the 1.2 timeframe it's ok (since
> the concerned system table 'local' and 'peers' are news anyway).
