Hi Folks,

I've got a 3rd party dependency (i.e Hadoop/HDFS) to be adapted into GIT
and wondering where exactly I should do the initial developments, etc with
the newly introduced GIT model? I do realize that I could have simply used
a private repository or something and do the initial forking and stuff, but
just checking if there's any recommended space available within any
WSO2-managed repository where I could simply get the stuff checked in and
make them available for collaborative developments within the team.

What's the recommended approach?

Let me explain why we need to get this in created as a separate repository
as well. We'd already done a lot of R&D around getting MT implemented for
HDFS using the extension points exposed within Hadoop without any success.
Tried getting ourselves into discussions with the Hadoop community also
just to see if there's an alternative approach available to what we'd
suggested for implementing the same but haven't received any positive
response yet. Therefore, I'm afraid the only approach we're left with right
now is to get the sources forked into our own code base and moving forward
with the developments. I certainly do realize that this would incur
maintenance issues and all while trying to upgrade the versions, etc.
However, I do not see any other feasible alternative option that we can
make use of, in order to continue developments on this front.

Please do share your feedback as to how we could resolve the aforementioned
as well.


Cheers,
Prabath

P.S. Pardon if this is something that's already been discussed within the
list, I'm just trying to get my head around this. :)
