Hi Bret,

Thanks for your reply, I had used Riak since version 0.14 via HTTP... for
2.0 I decided to do the switch to PBC and I'm glad to hear all HTTP calls
has been migrated to PBC too :)

Does anybody know an estimate date for version 2.0 to be out? I'm starting
a new project and I would love to be able to use 2.0 as "list" buckets is a
great feature for my needs.

Thanks,
Alex
