Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-1391:
---------------------------------------------

bq. although would it be better to name ColumnFamilies using camel-case

Making them fully lowercase internally would make them case-insensitive without 
any work using the current patch for CASSANDRA-3761. It's not really a big deal 
in any case because 1) the patch for CASSANDRA-3761 is not yet committed so it 
could change and 2) it won't be very hard to had some special casing for those 
if we wish so. But if nobody  has a preference, I would suggest calling them 
'keyspaces' and 'columnfamilies' directly.

> CASSANDRA-1292 fixed multiple migrations started from the same node to 
> properly queue themselves, but it is still possible for migrations initiated 
> on different nodes to conflict and leave the cluster in a bad state. Since 
> the system_add/drop/rename methods are accessible directly from the client 
> API, they should be completely safe for concurrent use.
> It should be possible to allow for most types of concurrent migrations by 
> converting the UUID schema ID into a VersionVectorClock (as provided by 
> CASSANDRA-580).
