Instead of considering the Rocket runtime as implemented, we should instead consider how we can implement their specification. A community is always healthier when there are multiple implementations of a specification, and through implementing it we may find ways to improve it.
Also, this allows us to be a strong voice in the community and provide value through a C++ implementation. I've created a JIRA ticket https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2162 to track any thoughts on this.
