Because of the build-dependency on Cassandra (and/or how it is satisfied)? What duplication are you referring to? I don't see much beyond all of the boilerplate you'd see between any two ant projects. > - patches that affect both Cassandra and JDBC are cumbersome since > they have to be committed separately (e.g. > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2857) Well, the idea of moving it was to be able to treat it as a separate project (more or less), so it follows that you'd have to independently patch anything using AbstractCassandraDaemon. Well, it follows that if we change an API that any project using it will need to be updated as well. Since the idea behind moving the drivers was to be able to treat them as separate projects, it follows that we'd have to do it here as well. > I'm inclined to think we should move it back to trunk (but not have > multiple versions for 0.8 branch).
