Hi Gora community, I am writing to get a feeling of whether you guys would find it interesting to collaborate closer with the Apache MetaModel (incubating) [1] community. I hope that you find it a good idea, but any feedback, good or bad, would be appreciated.
What I am thinking is that it looks like Gora has a set of datastore implementations which overlap somewhat with the datastore concept and implementations that we have for Apache MetaModel. I believe that the querying API of MetaModel is probably more flexible and unified, as well as having more modules than Gora's datastore module set. I imagine we could benefit from a collaboration and closer relationship in this way: The Gora project could probably be relieved of the plain connectivity aspects and "unification of differences" aspects, in order to focus more on your persistence model, processing model and so on. From MetaModel's perspective it would be great to have other Apache projects involved/depending on our project, since we want to raise our adoption more within other Apache projects. It would make for a great example of using MetaModel in a higher level framework. Curious to hear what you think! Best regards, Kasper Sørensen [1] http://metamodel.incubator.apache.org/
