Thanks Andrés for the CEP. This is a great contribution to the project and aligns with the original intent of the Sidecar stated in CEP-1. I've gone over the CEP details and it is consistent with the internals of Sidecar.
The only suggestion I have is to keep in mind the pluggability aspect of Sidecar. For example, for the Distributed Restart portion of the work, we should consider making interfaces that would allow us to potentially move the responsibility of keeping the state outside of Cassandra.
