Evening, Morning, Afternoon to All - Today's Recap is exceptional (especially for all of our riak_core fans): tons of new code, blog posts, videos, upcoming presentations, new production users and more.
Enjoy, and have a great weekend.

Check it out here ---> https://github.com/jtuple/riak_zab * riak_zab_example is the sister repo to riak_zab Thanks, jtuple! Related to this code, Alex Popescu (@al3xandru) wrote up a blog post exploring some of the potential implications for riak_zab + riak _core. * Read here ---> http://nosql.mypopescu.com/post/4633402570/riak-zab-zookeepers-zab-protocol-for-riak 2) For anyone who is going (or considering going) to Erlang Factory in London, there is a preso from Arun Suresh at Yahoo! that you're going to want to put on your calendar. * Details here ---> http://www.erlang-factory.com/conference/London2011/speakers/ArunSuresh 3) Sean Cribbs released a sample app called "riak_id". From the GitHub repo: "riak_id is a very simple application that serves both to duplicate functionality from Twitter’s “Snowflake” and to teach, via a very simple example, how to build a riak_core application." * In other words, go take a look ---> https://github.com/seancribbs/riak_id 4) Kresten Kreb released some great code that enables you to build "simple secondary indexes in Riak based on Riak's link mode." * On GitHub here ---> https://github.com/krestenkrab/riak_link_index Thanks, Kresten! 5) If anyone sees aphyr (Kyle Kingsbury) in #riak, be sure to congratulate him on the very successful launch of Riak (and MySQL)-backed showyou.com.
