We're planning to take the most well-supported community drivers under the RethinkDB umbrella (assuming the authors agree, of course). It will almost certainly be a collaboration with the community, but we'll be contributing much more to the community drivers, supporting the authors, and offering commercial support for these drivers to our customers.
That's good to hear, because the Go driver has been exhaustively maintained by a single developer (https://github.com/dancannon/gorethink) Dan Cannon, and I'm sure he (as well as the Go community) would love to see some support.
Very glad to hear that. I tried using RethinkDB with Clojure recently, but there are two drivers. Both are mentioned on your pages. Figuring out which driver I should use isn't a great start — so even if you don't do a lot of development, just pointing to the drivers you consider "canonical" would help.
I had to create a small project for programming class. I settled on clojure and revise(bitemyapp's driver). Avoid this one. I hit on driver bug today, but didn't have the time to fix/report it. Just switched to the other one...
I've been using clj-rethinkdb in production for a few months and its stable. Its also up to date on features afaik and the codebase is fairly clean, so adding new ones as needed shouldn't be hard. The author is also reasonably responsive.
I've also used Revise a lot and it was great, but the author is busy and hasn't been able to keep up with RethinkDB releases so its now a few versions behind.
Do you expect that as you stabilize you'll officially support more drivers? Or are you going to leave that as a community effort?
