I don't believe we have seen any requests for this in the apache mailing lists. Moreover they can build one from the source code enclosed. Our package is already 40MB and I had to split it 5 ways to upload to the people.apache.org. I don't think we want to make it any bigger than necessary.

I think it will be convenient for such users, if pig ships with a jar-without hadoop. -Thejas On 6/22/11 5:56 PM, "Olga Natkovich" <[email protected]> wrote: I have created a candidate build for Pig 0.9.0 release. This release introduces control structures, changes query parser, and performs semantic cleanup. The rat report showed no issues in Java files outside of build directory. Keys used to sign the release are available at http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/pig/trunk/KEYS?view=markup. Please try it out: http://people.apache.org/~olga/pig-0.9.0-candidate-0/ Build is also available in maven: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachepig-042/org/apache/pig/pig/0.9.0/ Should we release this?
