Hello All, As Apache Hadoop community is ready to release the next 2.0 alpha version of Hadoop , i would like to bring attention towards need to make better documentation of the tutorials and examples for the same.
Just one short example See the Single Node Setup tutorials for v 1.x<http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/r1.0.2/single_node_setup.html>and v 0.23<http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/r0.23.1/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/SingleCluster.html>, you can say 0.23 author is in hurry with keeping all things in assumption that reader knows everything what and where to do. We should spend some time on documentation , with so many beautiful features coming it would be great if you guys plan some special hackathon meetings to improve its documentation , code examples so that people can understand how to use them effectively. At present only two people can understand 0.23 , those who wrote the code and the other one is java compiler who is verifying its code :) *Tom White , *I request if you are reading this message , please pick-up your pen again to write Hadoop Definitive Guide edition 4th dedicated to next release for greater benefit of community. Thanks
