Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-292: -------------------------------------- I would ask that whoever picks this up be willing to maintain it in the long term. There simply isn't that many people who are genuinely interested in Cassandra on Windows; if it's a one-time contribution it is likely to languish and leave people with a bad impression when they do try to use it.
