Hey All, Thanks to the urging of Deadzen [0], we now have a dedicated mailing list for Riak Core. You can subscribe here:
http://lists.basho.com/mailman/listinfo/riak-core_lists.basho.com For those of you not familiar with Riak Core [1], it's more-or-less the distributed systems infrastructure that makes up, well, the core of how Riak distributes data around the cluster and scales. For some intro reading that's not code, there's an old but still valuable blog post on the Basho Blog [2] that's worth your time. Why a separate list? Because Core is a powerful library that can be (and is being) used to build applications distinct of the other OTP apps (kv, search, pipe, etc.) that make up Riak. I know of at least 10 companies/orgs that have Riak Core apps in production, and I'm sure there are many more just waiting to share their use cases with the world (hint hint...). There are plenty of Riak issues that are Core-related, and these should still be handled on this list. However, as Core gets more use, there are more questions/comments/concerns that might be specific to Core. There will probably be some overlap, too, so Basho will take responsibility for cross-posting when necessary. We've long been convinced of the power of Core, but it has received less tooling (docs, tutorials, etc.) due to lack of engineering time. This is a great first step to helping put more community power and focus behind Core. Thanks. Let me know if you have any questions.
