    I've only recently started looking at Flink, and the lack of support for 
non-JVM languages was a bit of showstopper for me.  That's one of the main 
reasons we use Storm.
    
    Anyway, is the idea here that this will just be for Python? Will it be 
simple to for third parties to add support for other languages?

> A general purpose API to run operators with arbitrary binaries. 
> This will allow to run Stratosphere programs written in Python, JavaScript, 
> Ruby, Go or whatever you like. 
> We suggest using Google Protocol Buffers for data serialization. This is the 
> list of languages that currently support ProtoBuf: 
> https://code.google.com/p/protobuf/wiki/ThirdPartyAddOns 
> Very early prototype with python: 
> https://github.com/rmetzger/scratch/tree/learn-protobuf (basically testing 
> protobuf)
> For Ruby: https://github.com/infochimps-labs/wukong
> Two new students working at Stratosphere (@skunert and @filiphaase) are 
> working on this.
> The reference binding language will be for Python, but other bindings are 
> very welcome.
> The best name for this so far is "stratosphere-lang-bindings".
> I created this issue to track the progress (and give everybody a chance to 
> comment on this)
