Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-3754:
----------------------------------------
1. until something comes out of incubation, apache can't release it. So
checking in the relevant artifacts and releasing downstream versions is going
to be on the forbidden list.
2. it may/should be possible to do something about sticking the artifacts up on
the maven repository, though there CPU versions and such like complicate
binding.
3. regarding a client that doesnt need java/hadoop.jar, well, you' ve just
moved the dependencies, haven't you, and switched to a different kind of RPC.
What would appeal to me more would be a RESTy interface that works long-haul,
so you could submit work a remote cluster, then monitor that work through any
Atom feed reader.

> Thrift is a cross-language RPC framework. It supports automatic code
> generation for a variety of languages (Java, C++, python, PHP, etc) It would
> be nice if HDFS APIs are exposed though Thirft. It will allow applications
> written in any programming language to access HDFS.
