+1 on a "RelatedApplications" page instead of the Support page. (not
married to the page name though)
+1 on proposed rules
some candidates for the page would be
Cascading
Hypertable
Kosmos Fs (Cloudstore)

My instinct would be to add a link next to the Support link, or
perhaps even as a separate section on the Support page. I think the
rules should be as on the Support page: alphabetical listing, no
endorsement implied, etc. We should remove things which do not
directly provide added value to Hadoop.
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Support
What do others think?

Hey all
I was wondering if there should be a page/listing for non-apache
(and commercially) licensed (sub) projects of Hadoop.
The FrontPage lists Sub-Projects and Contrib packages. And the
PoweredBy is 99% companies using Hadoop. There is even a People/
Companies for hire.
So I was thinking, for the slowly emerging category of commercial
apps built for Hadoop, there ought to be an equivalent page. Or in
the short term, just an additional section under Contrib on the
FrontPage, if that isn't too obnoxious.
The goal here is obviously to get equivalent visibility as
complimentary sub-projects.
Clearly this isn't a change I should be making without community
buy-in, considering my interest. But obviously am happy to make the
addition if approved.
Considering the second option above, adding:
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/
.....
- Sub-Projects
...
- Contrib
...
- Other Projects/Applications <- the addition
...
cheers,
chris
