Mario Emmenlauer commented on THRIFT-2426:
------------------------------------------

Dear [~codesf] thanks a lot, _now_ I see the problem. I was looking only on the 
fbthrift side of things but now I realize that Apache also has a hurdle to 
ingest the code.

For (2) I have kindly asked for IP clearance in 
[https://github.com/facebook/fbthrift/issues/309] but I understand this may not 
be easy to get. Still I think its relevant to keep trying.

For (1) the main hurdle may be that I am not knowledgeable to compile a useful 
patch. I can see certain relevant features that seem attractive, but the 
fbthrift code has deviated quite a bit so I'm unsure which parts are relevant 
and which aren't. Or would it make sense to just diff the current head 
revisions and get that approved as a patch, so that you can take out the 
relevant parts yourself?
