Ah yes, I should clarify.  What I should have said was an ORM type library 
which uses cassandra-cql as it's base.  What I was looking for was someone that 
had wrapped cassandra-cql with an active record or data mapper compatibility 
layer.  

My concern is that it i'm looking for a ruby client that I can base a bunch of 
code around for the next couple years.  I didn't want to hop on one bandwagon 
and then have myself limited or run into compatibility issues as new releases 
of C* come out.   As I understand it CQL was created to provide that stable 
interface for library developers.  If that is true it would make sense for me 
to search out an ORM which uses CQL underneath?

Basically what I'm trying to do is validate these assumptions, and if they are 
true possibly finance the work for a CQL based ORM, or if not then write a 
bunch of code around one of the other libraries.

Until then I'll search out the resources you mentioned.  Thanks.
