> People complain that having "Dr Who" in the code causes confusion and isn't 
> appropriate in Hadoop now that it has matured.
> I propose that we replace this anonymous user ID with {{@BigDataBorat}}. This 
> will
> # Increase brand awareness of @BigDataBorat and their central role in the Big 
> Data ecosystem.
> # Drive traffic to twitter, and increase their revenue. As contributors to 
> the Hadoop platform, this will fund further Hadoop development.
> Patching the code is straightforward; no easy tests, though we could monitor 
> twitter followers to determine rollout of the patch in the field.
