Jason Trost commented on ACCUMULO-482:
--------------------------------------

Have there been any updates on this (Sapan/Jim)?  Talking to devs from other 
start-ups makes me think this feature is more important than I originally 
thought.  Not having a thrift proxy API or a built-in REST API is a real 
barrier to non-java/non-JVM devs using/adopting Accumulo.  This barrier is not 
there for Cassandra and HBase since they both have Thrift APIs.

I think many devs in our community discount this since Java is so dominant, but 
outside the government, esp. in smaller start-ups there is a real aversion to 
Java, instead favoring python, Ruby, Node JS, etc.
