I've been operating under the assumption that code that enables interoperability with other projects (especially if they create requirements for additional dependencies that aren't necessary for the operation of Accumulo, but also if they increase the build time significantly but only be expected to benefit a small subset of users) go in contrib.
I don't know if that's the consensus or reasonable to assume, but that's where my thinking is at. -- Christopher L Tubbs II http://gravatar.com/ctubbsii On Fri, Jul 12, 2013 at 5:34 PM, Jonathan Hsieh <[email protected]> wrote: > I was testing the pig storage handler and was curious how it would ever get > released in an apache release.
