We have not really explored going to netty 4.0. I know at some point we will
probably have to switch over to use it, but for the time being most of the
dependencies that we have seen still use netty 3.X, but if you have code to use
netty 4.x and want to contribute I would be happy to review it and see what we
can do to support that. Even if it involves doing some shading to support it.

Hi All,
I am quite curious to know if there is any interest or activity around
upgrading Storm to use Netty 4.0 or higher. From what I understand, Storm
(at least till the 0.10.0 dev branch I checked out) still depends on Netty
3.x. and Netty 4.x is not compatible with 3.x code Link
<http://netty.io/wiki/new-and-noteworthy-in-4.0.html>. I could not find any
related issues in the Apache Storm Jira, and is curious to know if anyone
has explored implications and impact of such a change.
Regards,
Julian
