Does Splunk ever plan on updating the java api to mirror the python splunk-sdk? The java library is way behind the python library when it comes to custom search. As far as I can tell you cannot even create custom searches with java for Splunk.
1. Splunk could more easily integrate with a variety of apache tools.
2. You would get a performance boost in for applications that really should not be built in java.
3. Splunk would open itself up to a larger segment of the developer community.
