Justin, thanks for the heads up. I agree that ti would be best to use the same frameworks / libraries. I'll look into Aravinda's work. I'll try to get in touch with Aravinda, too.
Thiago, it's great that you've working on python bindings! That makes my project much easier. :) It'll also be good to look at the Gluster backend for Swift. I've edited the proposal based on comments from Jay. I don't want to clog everyone's inboxes again, so if anyone wants to see it, I can send it to you. Thank you again for your enthusiasm and support!
