I think the spark connector belongs in the geode community, which implies the geode ASF repo. I think we can address the other concerns technically. > General Question: > Can a module under Geode repo be released independent of Geode Release. > E.g.: Can we release the connector without tied to Geode release? This is an interesting question I don’t know the answer to. However, I think we can handle this by creating a geode release frequently enough to satisfy our community. For example, if there is a new spark version available we can determine if there is value to the community in creating a release (geode + spark connector) containing that support. Another option to explore is to create a looser coupling such that the spark connector can work across multiple spark versions (I know this is possible with Hadoop, not sure about Spark). > > Any input/suggestions? > > Thanks, > -Anil.
