I'm already grinning from ear to ear so release should go as planned :-)) Awesome news for sure.
As a side historical note: Dmitriy (Setrakyan) and I worked on our 1st cross-platform (Java/.NET) in-memory middleware back in 2001-2002. Back almost 15 years ago we saw a clear need for Java and MSFT-world to be able to work together on in-memory computing middleware. It's immensely gratifying that ASF gets a in-memory computing software (as part of Apache Ignite) that delivers on that idea. -- Nikita Ivanov On Mon, Aug 17, 2015 at 5:26 PM, Dmitriy Setrakyan <dsetrak...@apache.org> wrote: > Hi Igniters, > > Last week GridGain has agreed to donate its C++ and .NET implementations > for Apache Ignite to ASF.
