-----------------------------------------
Sounds even better.
> Notify clients that bootstrap is finished over binary protocol

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Joost Reuzel

> Currently, Cassandra will notify clients when a new node is added to a
> cluster. However, that node is typically not usable yet. It first needs to
> gossip its key range and finish loading all its assigned data before it
> allows clients to connect. Depending on the amount of data this may take
> quite a while. The clients in the mean time have no clue about the bootstrap
> status of that node. The only thing they can do is periodically check if it
> will accept a connection.
> My proposal would be to send an additional UP event when the bootstrap is
> done, this allows clients to mark the node initially as down/unavailable and
> simply wait for the UP event to arrive.
> Kind regards,
> Joost
