Please come back to YCSB

Hi Folks!

We'd love to see the work done here on the mongo client folded back into the main repository. We've just gotten over the hill of our first release since the hiatus. We're up to 5 maintainers and our current plan is monthly releases.

@busbey - Rob Moore has been helping bring mongodb code in main repo up-to-date - I believe our future intent for this branch is to expand its functionality to things that most noSQL key/value stores don't:

• different types of data (bytes aren't very indexable or compressible)
• different workloads (querying by indexed secondary fields, updating multiple docs by criteria)
• aggregation type queries

Most likely that will diverge from things that can be merged back into the master YCSB, I would guess.

I'd be surprised if things couldn't be merged back into YCSB. We'd love to see other workloads in the main YCSB, plenty of noSQL stores provide different kinds of data, and some others have secondary index support.
