Bindings to popular IPC/RPC protocols such as Protocol Buffers and
Apache Thrift
Key Skills: Intimate knowledge of cross-machine communication protocols.
Large-scale programming using D requires bindings to cross-machine and
cross-language communication protocols. Such include Google's Protocol
Buffers, Apache Thrift, and others. D's standard library currently
includes no such protocol implementation. Providing such would motivate
adoption of D for large-scale development.
Protocol Buffers and Thrift need code generation using IDL unlike
MessagePack, BERT, etc.
Such protocols are acceptable to Phobos?
