Sean Owen commented on SPARK-3789:
----------------------------------

I'll be quiet now; I like my opinions but I dragged this off-topic. I am really 
glad to see Ankur weigh in and say there is more in store for GraphX, and can 
look at these changes, and that it's certainly not going away. (I'm reminded 
that, actually, MLlib uses it.) We can only gain from having more tools 
available in more languages. If we have people to contribute and people to 
shepherd / maintain, then a Python API is a no-brainer. I agree that there is a 
chicken-and-egg issue: making tools unlocks demand which drives more tools. 
Even if one agreed this was a niche application so far, well, it's only niche 
until it isn't right?
