Hi,

As per the CEP process guidelines, I'm starting a formal DISCUSS
thread to resume the conversation
started here[1].

On behalf of the developers who maintain the DataStax drivers, I
confirm that we are offering to
donate to the Apache Software Foundation all seven DataStax-funded
drivers, and are therefore
opening this CEP[2] to discussion.

In the CEP document linked above, we tried our best to address all the
issues that we anticipate
going forward with this endeavor, but the task is big: your
suggestions, remarks and comments are
most welcome.

As stated previously, we understand that we're all primarily focused
on the C* 4.0 release
currently; therefore we don't mind deferring any concrete progress on
this until after C* 4.0 is
out.

However, as you can judge from the CEP draft document, the donation is
likely to have many
implications on sensitive areas, e.g. on project governance; which is
why we think best to open the
discussion as early as possible, so that we all have enough time to
determine what we think best
suits the project going forward.

Kind regards,

Alex Dutra
