I would say you should ping Matt Ranney and Voxer about this but it looks like you've already dug into that.

To date, the most heavily-used node.js code with Riak has been riak-js (which used to live at riakjs.org). Francisco Treacy was leading the charge on this but had to put it down on due to some other opportunities. Sadly, it hasn't seen too much love over the past few months. However, I have it from a few very solid authorities that there will soon be consistent work being done on Riak-js. There's a fork of it here (but there should be a different location for the new work that's happening) : https://github.com/mostlyserious/riak-js So, I would say hold off on writing your own and ping me offline if you're interested in lending a hand on riak-js. Or sit tight for a few days until they make their plans known. :) Mark [1] https://github.com/mranney/node_riak/issues/5 > -- Doug > > -- > http://www.dmuth.org/ > > _______________________________________________ > riak-users mailing list > riak-users@lists.basho.com > http://lists.basho.com/mailman/listinfo/riak-users_lists.basho.com _______________________________________________ riak-users mailing list riak-users@lists.basho.com http://lists.basho.com/mailman/listinfo/riak-users_lists.basho.com
