[Non-binding]
I am all for the Kafka Connect(er) as indeed it makes HBase "more
relevant" and generates buzz to help me sell HBase adoption in my
endeavors.
Also, I would like to see a connectors repo a lot as I would expect it can
make the HBase source and releases more obvious in what is changing. Not
to distract from Kafka, but Spark has in the past been a hang-up and seems
a good fit in such a repo too; as such, I would prefer Apache over GitHub.

I like this idea. We are already releasing hbase-thirdparty like this.

Where we think 'outside of HBase' would be?
Github seems too 'remote' from project and from Apache? Would we make a new
repo called hbase-connectors and move REST, thrift, and this new patch
there?
Thanks,

I'm -0 for including this into the main hbase tree. I feel like we've
made a bit of progress in cleaning up our core, and this strikes me as a
step in the wrong direction.
At the same time, the integration seems nice enough (for the same
reasons Andrew points out). Is there a reason this couldn't exist
outside of HBase (at the ASF or otherwise)? Given a quick glance at the
patch, it would be quite trivial to keep separate (just requires some
heavier scripting to get it off the ground that the HBase scripts do
setup for). I feel like that will decrease our debt while we see if
people start using it. Our API should be more than stable enough to
prevent any worry about drift happening from core to this project.

We good w/ taking on this new feature?
It looks good to me. Check it out up on HBASE-15320. I was going to
commit
to tip of branch-2 so it'd show up in hbase-2.2.x unless you all want
some
backporting action going on.
