This is the answer I hoped not to read. You might call it a premature optimization but I believe it is reasonable to try to create a distributed Erlang app with Riak as a dependency.
I've been hacking on a Riak fork that twiddles the rebar and reltool configs to shoehorn my own code into the same VM. That part is awkward but not impossible. I was hoping you'd say Basho was working on an easy way to include Riak as a rebar dep without forking as I did.
