For 3rd-party libs, I have been publishing independently, for example at isarn-sketches-spark or silex: https://github.com/isarn/isarn-sketches-spark https://github.com/radanalyticsio/silex
Either of these repos provide some good working examples of publishing a spark UDAF or ML library for jvm and pyspark. (If anyone is interested in contributing new components to either of these, feel free to reach out) For people new to Spark library dev, Will Benton and I recently gave at talk at SAI-EU on publishing Spark libraries: https://databricks.com/session/apache-spark-for-library-developers-2 Cheers, Erik On Fri, Oct 19, 2018 at 9:40 AM Stephen Boesch <java...@gmail.com> wrote: > Erik - is there a current locale for approved/recommended third party > additions?
