Roadmap (suggestions)

0.3.0

• Move hashing into fetch middleware to simplify parallelization.
• Investigate JS side integration of http://y-js.org/
• Investigate integration with similar systems, eg. IPFS pubsub
• Split middleware from replicated datatype implementations
• Improve network IO library kabel (Android support) [DONE]
• Experimental automatic Gossip protocol
• Experimental Snapshot Isolation
• Build reasonable small support libraries to partition application data for efficient client side consumption, Datomic and Datascript. Look into datsync etc.
• Add a monitoring interface as a cljs library with basic web views for applications to communicate their synching state to the user in a uniform way.
• Introduce clojure.spec to stage/... API.

0.4.0

• Authentication with signed public-private key signatures
• Model some level of consistency between CRDTs, probably Snapshot Isolation, to compose CRDTs. (NMSI, Antidote, research)
• Implement more useful CRDTs (counter, vector-clock, ...) from techreview and other papers and ship by default.

0.5.0

• Use p2p block distribution similar to BitTorrent for immutable values (similar to blocks)
• support WebRTC for value distribution similar to BitTorrent
• Java bindings

Long-term (1.0.0)

• Encryption of transaction with CRDT key encrypted by userkeys, public key schema, explore pub/private key solutions. Maybe metadata signing can work (slowly) on a DHT?
• Distribute bandwidth between CRDTs.
• Negotiate middlewares with versioning.
• Implement diverse prototypes, from real-time to "big-data".
