Hey all, we are looking into a new serialization format for the CLA that will work across languages. We also hope that we can find something that is faster and creates smaller checkpoints. This is going to take a few weeks at least to settle on since I would like to create some small proof-of-concepts in the top-choice options.
This work is being tracked in JIRA and the wiki: https://issues.numenta.org/browse/NPC-313 https://github.com/numenta/nupic/wiki/Serialization *Please follow up with any suggestions you have or feedback on the potential options.* My intuition is that something like Protocol Buffers/Thrift/Cap'n Proto makes backwards-compatibility much easier (relative to something like MessagePack or manually writing out checkpoints). But those methods make it a little more difficult to tie the logic to he different parts in an object-oriented way. They are more suited to functional programming, which isn't bad but different from what we currently have.
