Yes, this seems straightforward because Giraph appears to be in a similar state: There is an 0.1.0-incubating release that supports Hadoop 1.x, among other 0.20-ish vintages. Then there is trunk / 0.2-SNAPSHOT which also supports Hadoop trunk. > Thanks for brining this up -- we need at least a smoke-level test for each > component (nothing fancy to start with -- running examples, etc).

Yes I can certainly do that for you if you are going to take the risk on adding Giraph. I think their PageRank benchmark is where most people start when trying it out, so making that into a smoke test seems natural.
