Lance, The JobConf cleanup sounds like a good place to start. I'll be on vacation through Dec 31 and will start on this at the beginning of January. Thanks,

For example: Hadoop JobConf is old and deprecated, Configuration is new. JobConf is a subclass of Configuration to assist transition. The task would be to find everywhere JobConf is used and figure out how to switch to Configuration. I complained about this a few days ago and Sean graciously did a sweep. Usually just unit tests have to change, and of course user code. Another great project is to fix code that uses 'instanceof' to use object-oriented programming instead.
