Hi Adam,

Great to hear from you! I personally welcome the driver donation. My views are

Java and Python at least.

No opinions here. What are the major differences here? Could you please 
elaborate.

I generally think people who have built the code base should become committers 
to avoid disruption and allow continuity.

I am not completely sure but we may need to rename some packages but it would 
be really great if we could avoid breakages due to naming changes.

ASF Jenkins/CircleCI works? Do the drivers have specific needs beyond this?

sub-projects like cassandra-diff, sidecar, etc. This way drivers continue to 
evolve separately.
