Resource allocation module
We need to develop a new resource allocation module, replacing the
off-the-shelf DRF.
As I understand, the current mechanism
http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/allocation-module/
is being replaced with a less intrusive module architecture,
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2160
The capabilities of the new mechanism have real advantages for us.
However, it is not clear when it will be released. The jira has an 'in
progress' status. What is the current target / horizon for making this
available to the users? Also, is there any documentation on the SPIs /
technical interfaces of these modules (what info is passed from slaves,
frameworks, offers; what calls can be made by the modules; etc)?
Regards, Gidon

Hi Gidon,
and thanks for your interest. As you have already noticed, the work is
currently in progress and should land in master branch in around 2 weeks.
It will also be part of 0.23 release. There is no documentation so far, but
we plan to document the API once the patches land. Right now you may want
to look at the Allocator interface and check the DRF implementation for
more details.
