That said, we (Fluo developers) have discussed this possibility, and would welcome contributions which do extend support to those, and possibly other systems. Fluo's API is largely agnostic to the underlying system, so it could be possible in theory. However, it would be a huge effort that the current developers are not prepared for. That could be easier if there existed a common API which supported each of these systems. I don't know that any such system exists today, and certainly not one which exposes some of the key features which Fluo needs to run (ConditionalMutations and custom use of the versioning timestamp bits with specialized iterators, for example).
