Break the build. This way people are forced to deal with the problem rather than putting it off (or it not getting done). If we add it then one of the first tasks is to get the existing code up to scratch , then it's easier to maintain

Ok, I've made the changes so feel free to review. If there is no more
feedback I'll resolve the JIRA.


The page looks great.  Thanks for doing this D.


One thing I noticed in doing this is that Hadoop are using checkstyle to help enforce their coding standards. Perhaps we should consider doing this
as well?


Agreed.  This is easy to add in w/ maven.  You think it should break
the build or should we just report the probs?

Hey Daniel

http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/HowToContribute

Some issues that I see / things that I would like clarified include: 1. The use of ant - from what I understand this is no longer the case as maven has been introduced. As a result a number of the instructions are
out
of date.


This is true.  Ant for old stuff, the 0.20 branch and behind.  Maven
going forward.  You can point devs at the maven page up on the wiki
where we're trying to doc common maven tasks. There is even a how to
do in maven what you used to do in ant table.

2. Use of git - from what I gathered from trawling the hbase-dev list, a
git
repo is available. I'd prefer to use this approach as I think it is a
better
way to work (probably a number of you agree). I'd like to see a reference
to
the git repo here and perhaps some instructions on how to work with git
in
the hbase context (might help others in the future adopt git rather than
svn).

Great.

3. The recent introduction of the use of Review Board for reviewing work.


Excellent.

I can create a jira task for this if you like, but I just wanted to kick
it
around the group to see if there is anything else that should go on or
any
opinions on the above. Although I could probably do the task myself, I'd
prefer if someone more experienced with the process would make the
change.


You should make the change Daniel. As you suggest, the rest of us can
review.  Let me add some stuff to the JIRA you just opened.

Thanks for doing this important work.
St.Ack
