Hello Fedora developers and maintainers,

Apache Cassandra is a free and open-source distributed NoSQL database written 
in Java, we have a package since Fedora 27, I am a maintainer for about a year 
with a help of Augusto Caringi, but currently we dont have enought capacity to 
keep it up-to-date.

State in Fedora:
- older Cassandra version 3.11.1 with backported fix for CVE-2018-8016 from 
3.11.2
- generally working, no issues in Bugzilla
- 2 main packages are cassandra(client tools) and cassandra-server(database 
server)
- removed Thrift interface

We also have docker container[1], software collection[2] and tests[3].

Current goal is to update Cassandra to 3.11.3 version. This is not that easy 
because of Thrift API, there are 2 ways:
1. rebase patch which removes Thrift interface, it is not trivial, the patch is 
quite big and touch almost everything
2. package missing dependencies for Thrift interface

Nice to have:
- dnf module
- SELinux policy

If you have any questions or you are interested, do not hessitate to contact me.

Thanks.
