Based on the feedback so far it seems like it wouldn't make it in the core, though. I could provide a way to plug in your own API to Cassandra so anyone could write a full API using PB, HTTP, or whatever protocol they like. Underneath it could invoke the Thrift interface methods locally and relay their results out. This would be really nice but again I doubt it would be included in the core. Ted
