Aaron T. Myers commented on HADOOP-9902:
----------------------------------------
[[email protected]] - I think you're overreacting and overgeneralizing.
If you care to look you will find many reviews/commits of many contributions
with contributors and reviewers from different organizations. The JIRA has been
open for a long time, yes, but I think Allen will admit that he has not been
pushing on it hard until rather recently. The second rev of the patch was only
posted at the beginning of last month.
Regardless, I think there are two big reasons this JIRA has yet to be reviewed:
# It is a very large and important change, hence will require quite some time
to thoroughly review, and it really does deserve a thorough review since it's
such a critical part of the code.
# Many or most of the Hadoop committers are less familiar with shell scripting
than they are with other types of programming, and so don't feel well qualified
to do so. I know I personally don't.
Regardless, turning this JIRA into a flame war is not an appropriate way to go
about getting it committed. I'd personally love to see this get committed, but
like Andrew I don't want to see it (or anything) committed without a review.
