Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-12547:
----------------------------------------
HADOOP-12518 is a recent patch for the hadoop-pipes build, targeted to 3.0.0.
That implies that someone might be interested in keeping it. [~aw], would you
please comment, since you filed HADOOP-12518?
I agree that if we proceed with removing it, it would have to be done in
trunk/3.0.0 only on grounds of backward compatibility.
> Remove hadoop-pipes
> -------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-12547
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12547
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe
> Assignee: Colin Patrick McCabe
> Priority: Minor
>
> Development appears to have stopped on hadoop-pipes upstream for the last few
> years, aside from very basic maintenance. Hadoop streaming seems to be a
> better alternative, since it supports more programming languages and is
> better implemented.
> There were no responses to a message on the mailing list asking for users of
> Hadoop pipes... and in my experience, I have never seen anyone use this. We
> should remove it to reduce our maintenance burden and build times.
