Roman Shaposhnik commented on BIGTOP-718:
-----------------------------------------
Now that we've graduated, I believe that having a clearly spelled out set of
bylaws as part of our permanent web site is a must for the project. As Tom
pointed out, our ASF Board resolution is an obvious kernel for this document,
but obviously we have to drill down into more details to arrive at something
similar to: http://hadoop.apache.org/bylaws.html
Eli has offered a nice list of additional things that require further
clarification and I see that Cos and others chimed in with really good
questions. It seems like we need a way to coalesce all of this input and follow
up with a PMC vote to make it official.
If this sounds like a reasonable way forward we can start a wiki as a tool for
coalescing all these ideas.
The timing is right -- I'm in the process of post-graduation infrastructure
move and this feels like exactly the right thing to get nailed down now.

> Key: BIGTOP-718
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-718
> Project: Bigtop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Sean Mackrory
> Assignee: Sean Mackrory

> I think some updates are in order for this Wiki page in order to more
> accurately reflect the goals of the project:
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BIGTOP/Requirement+for+adding+a+new+component+to+Bigtop+distribution.
> For starters, it should have a more prominent link on the Wiki and a summary
> on the project home page. Not only is it going to be an increasingly common
> question, but it's an important part of defining what "Bigtop" is really all
> about. I know when I first started on the project it was the first thing I
> looked for.
> Second, we say projects have to be "Big Data"-related. Judging by other
> documents* and existing discussions regarding new components, it seems like
> we really mean to say "Hadoop"-related, and I think the extra focus would be
> good (having said that, I do think of Spark as Hadoop-related).
