algebird-bufferable

[avibryant]

This is just a start, and shouldn't be merged yet, but: defining some Bufferable implementations for Algebird objects so that we don't have to use Kryo for long-term serialized storage.

[sritchie]

Of course any bijection module could go in either bijection or the project on which the module depends, but I wonder if this should just go into https://github.com/twitter/bijection/tree/develop/bijection-algebird? Good stuff, though, this is really great.

[avibryant]

I think the argument for making this part of algebird rather than bijection is that its rate of change will be more closely tied to algebird's; we're more likely to add new data types to algebird that need new bufferable implementations, than we are to change how bijection/bufferable work.

[sritchie]

Ah, sure, good point. Should we start this and think about folding bijection-algebird back in to here?

[sritchie]

Hmm, looks like 2.10 isn't happy.

[johnynek]

Fix the 2.10 issues and the comments and we merge (and publish in the next week or two).

[avibryant]

Do you think we're better to just move to scala-pickling, or are you confident that Bufferable is going to be used/useful in the long term?

[johnynek]

I assume in the long run pickling will be a win, but currently it looks like we need 2.10 and I'm not sure the Java story, which matters for us.

[johnynek]

Can I talk you into getting this green?

I want to merge it for the next release in a week or two.

(really want one for BloomFilter too, by the way).

[avibryant]

I'll try to find time in the next week yeah.

[sritchie]

Boom, we're about to merge algebird-bijection... let's move these over there. I like this.

[sritchie]

Hey @avibryant, can we get you to move these into algebird-bijection?

[avibryant]

Hey, really sorry I haven't gotten to this yet; not sure when I'll have time. If someone else wants to take it on, great, otherwise I'll get to it when I can, but either way we shouldn't hold up a release for it obviously.

[ianoc]

Sorry my bad, git foo on cmd line broke stuff and closed all of these
