Thanks André! I'll be very interested to hear more about what you are building on top of DistributedArrays.
The API is open and the CLI will be open source in a few weeks. The server will likely be partially open sourced in the future. And any generally applicable changes to the Julia codebase will be definitely submitted upstream.
