Hi Billie,

That makes it a lot clearer.  I would ask you to clarify it in the current
report, however the report has no mentor sign off.  I'll be submitting it
tonight.  Since you'll be marked as monthly, I would encourage you to
either resolve the outstanding status of the project or clarify in the next
report that it was only some slider source code, not the entire project,
that has moved.  Though ideally, if you are moving code into Hadoop it
makes more sense for you to simply graduate to a sub-project.
