Hi! I'm currently evaluating different Hadoop versions for a new project. I'm tempted by the Cloudera distribution, since it's neatly packaged into .deb files, and is the stable distribution but with some patches applied, for example the bzip2 support.
I understand that I can get a support agreement from Cloudera to match this distribution, but if that's not an option, will running the Cloudera distribution put me in a position where I won't get any help from the community because I'm not running an official Apache Hadoop release?
