Bruno Mahé commented on BIGTOP-718:
-----------------------------------

I don't think this ticket is the place for a discussion about Apache Bigtop's 
policies.
I would rather recommend to create a thread on the mailing list. We don't have 
to wait to establish the bylaws to start a discussion about our policies 
(although I would highly recommend to wait for the bylaws to be established 
before expecting any decision on policies).

> 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).
