Thomas Graves commented on HADOOP-8547:
---------------------------------------
I don't think we need to remove them entirely because they were useful to me to
test pipes when I mavenized it. I think documenting would be good, there is a
README.txt down in the examples directory itself. We could also add some to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8477 about the examples.
If someone finds them useful in the distribution I'm fine with them being there
although would personally prefer to see them in a pipes subdir
(examples/pipes/bin) or renamed to have pipes in the name or something so that
its obvious what they are for. If there isn't a good use case, I would prefer
to see this reverted as in my opinion it just adds more clutter to the
distribution. Personally if I'm writing a pipes program and want an example,
I'm going to want both the source code and the binary so I don't see the
binaries by themselves very useful.

> It looks like since MAPREDUCE-4267, we're no longer exporting the hadooppipes
> examples/bin directory to hadoop-dist as part of a "mvn package" build. This
> seems unintentional, so we should export those binaries again.
