#FAQ

##What is our priority? This driver's main purpose is to access memcached with high performance. To that purpose, this driver multiplexes requests and is fully asynchronous.

##Is there a CLA? No

##What are the features we want to add?

• Support of more memcache requests (see https://code.google.com/p/memcached/wiki/BinaryProtocolRevamped)
• vBucket key locator Done
• Automatic configuration via Couchbase REST API Done
• Very simple UDP transport
• Support other types than byte[] Done

##What we do not want to support

• Multi-get: multi-get as it's implemented in other binary memcache drivers is just a way to multiplex requests to reach better performance. This driver multiplexes all the requests, so there is no use to add a multi-get.
• Silent requests: We don’t want silent requests because it messes the underlying multiplexing. If you know how to do it you’re welcome but be aware it’s a complex topic.(GetQ, SetQ, AddQ, etc.)

##How to contribute

• Fork -> rebase on master -> pull request
• We'll review all changes before merging them, we ask for:
• Performance
• Readable code
• Tests
• In case of a bug fix, please try to also provide a test
• Features aligned with our roadmap

##What if you don't fit with these requirements

• The API is plugin oriented, you can implement most of the main components and inject them with the factories.
• Fork the project, Github is also made for this.
