So, you guys forked gemfire, spark and spark-jobserver. Are you planning on going back into mainline or will you be maintaining the forks to stay current at some interval?

Just to be clear, we do support Snappydata as a library (unfortunately, the docs don't make this clear) that can work with your distribution (upto 1.6 today). Our releases will support the latest Spark version in a staggered manner.

Everything we have done is an extension to Spark. None of the existing functionality is lost. In a sense, we have turned Spark to work more like a database. So, don't think we can turn it back into the "mainline" (assuming that is what you meant).
