So I suggest that we take advantage of the project split to clear out the patch queue, and to keep it short in future. It might be a good idea to split the queue into three to correspond to the new projects (we should be able to use the component field to do this). What do people think?
Won't we be splitting Jira too, into, e.g., MAPRED, HDFS and either leaving the remaining in HADOOP or renaming it HCORE or somesuch? Jira makes it easy to move issues between projects, and to link between projects, so this should be a painless split.
