Re: Status of CEP-1
Hi folks, I have been using Sidecar recently and have found some of its functionalities to be quite useful. Hari and I are also working on CEP-40 which aims to introduce live migration features in Sidecar in the near future. However, as others have mentioned, I agree that it currently lacks proper documentation. Since this is an official Apache project, I believe that creating comprehensive documentation would be beneficial. This documentation should include an overview, architecture, a list and description of various endpoints, and some examples or tutorials on how to use Sidecar's features. This documentation would help people get started with Sidecar and lower the entry barrier for many. We can update the documentation incrementally as needed, along with future enhancements and new features. However, creating some form of formal documentation would be very helpful. To this end I'm willing and highly interested in writing some form of formal documentation for the Sidecar project. Please let me know your thoughts/opinions on this proposal.
