I am sure the infra team with love this idea :): Thinking about the direction of Gossip. This is currently the message on our front page:
Apache Gossip Apache Gossip™ is a system to form peer-to-peer networks using the gossip protocol. Thinking about the bigger picture... We are looking to add SWIM, we are looking to add CRDT. In the future we might have some type of leader election, or multicast based cluster membership. I am borrowing a notion that Gary brought up in the early days of the proposal with the term "toolkit". Here is my new idea: Apache Consensus Apache Consensus is a distributed services toolkit that includes clustering technology like peer-to-peer membership services like gossip and data primitives like distributed CRDT data types.... bla bla. What does everyone think? This is no immediate need here, but I think the re-brand is more inline with there we are headed and more interesting to attract development. Comments and other suggestions are welcome.
