Hi, Google Summer of code is coming again! Will ZooKeeper take part as a project? Where could we collect project ideas? The ideas page from 2010 is at:
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/ZooKeeper/SoC2010Ideas However ZooKeeper became a top-level-project since then and got it's own wiki. Disclaimer: I'd like to take part as a student for the ZK project. First ideas: - use avro instead of jute - extract the consistent hashing code from cassandra as a standalone zookeeper aplication - Re-implement zookeeper on top of node.js in javascript. :-) (kidding...) - Check, whether Finite State Transducers[1] can be of any help to minimize the memory consumption of the znodes tree - Check, whether it makes sense to represent paths in the znodes tree as lists of immutable, singleton PathElements [1] http://chbits.blogspot.com/2011/01/finite-state-transducers-part-2.html Best regards, Thomas Koch, http://www.koch.ro
