[Hawkular-dev] Cassandra & Titan

I think this is more on the side of bad.

If I read the following correctly:

"
The Aurelius team, at DataStax, has two primary missions: 1.) provide a Titan-
inspired graph product to their DSE product offering and 2.) continue to work 
with the Apache TinkerPop community to ensure an open source, graph standard 
for everyone.
"

They will work on a commercial graph DB and contribute to TinkerPop which is 
NOT a graph db in itself - its a JDBC-like API for graph dbs + a set of tools 
on top of that API.

Crap. And I was so looking forward to using it... :(
