Reading further it is even explicitly mentioned the Sleepycat license is
not allowed for inclusion in an ASF product, see

Thanks for the leg work, I guess Sleepycat isn't an option.

FWIW, left to my own judgment I would make the performance improvements to snapstore first (http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RIVER-128 and http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RIVER-171, they are against logstore, but apply to snapstore too). This would give us a performance base line that we could measure new store designs against.

The easiest way to address RIVER-128 is to break the log format, given that changing all the package names is also going to break the log format doing RIVER-128 before the first real release has some appeal.

And it is that way today. We are tricked by hope into starting
companies, beginning books, immigrating to this country and investing
in telecom networks. The challenges turn out to be tougher than we
imagined. Our excessive optimism is exposed. New skills are demanded.
But nothing important was ever begun in a prudential frame of mind.
