No, Datashare2 is not ready for consumption, and its differences to
Datashare are not documented. As far as I know, it is not part of the
ECF builds, I created it a while ago to capture what I think a
general-purpose model sharing API should look like, but since then did
not have the time to get it into a state that could be consumed by
clients.

I think this would be great. I will talk to Mustafa on Thursday, and I
will explain the ideas behind datashare2 to him. Maybe you would like
to join the call? I think it is at 2pm eastern.
