That's great, but isn't the whole point of CRDTs that you don't actually need any special support as long as you get "access" to conflicting writes and can resolve them at the application level? It seems that they would be trivial to implement atop Riak-1.x, unless I'm missing something.

Don't get me wrong: Built-in support is fine and all, but it's hardly going to save the world.

EDIT: Just to add something other than skepticism, I found this video with Mark Shapiro quite interesting (and on-topic!)
