--------------------------------------------

I will be happy to help there (as I did some IOs ;)).

> Beam has javadocs for how to create a read or write transform, but no friendly user guide on how to get started using BoundedSource/BoundedReader.
> This should cover:
> * background on beam's source/sink API design 
> * design patterns
> * evaluating different data sources (eg, what are the properties of a pub sub system that affect how you should write your UnboundedSource? What is the best design for reading from a NoSql style source?)
> * testing - how to write unit, integration (and once we have them, performance tests)
> * public API recommendations
> This is related, but not strictly overlapping with: 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-193
> - the Dataflow SDK documentation for "Custom Sources and Sinks"  contains some info about writing Sources/Sinks, but it is somewhat out of date, and doesn't reflect the things we've learned recently.
