I killed Thrudb for the love of Cassandra

  Thank you! This is extremely healthy for the NoSQL community. Whenever I see an "XXXX open source project has closed down because we're duplicating tons of work from another project" I rejoice, as a huge problem in open source is fragmentation.

  It was a great effort and a brilliant design, Jake. Thanks for all of your help when I was using ThruDB at Archivd.

  What an amazingly gracious thing to do. It's the opposite of a 'vanity fork' (I fork because I want to be the leader of something). There should be more of this, fragmentation is open sources' strength but also by far its biggest weakness. Too many projects that duplicate 80% of the (easy) functionality of other projects and miss out on the remaining 20% because of the waste in resources.
