This of course begs a larger question - should we just merge Common,
HDFS & Map-Reduce together and be done with?
I think there's still a reasonable long-term goal to split MapReduce
from HDFS, so that they can release separately and are maintained by
separate teams. So I believe a strong division of these code trees
and
release artifacts should remain.
It is clear from the comments on this thread that the move to split
HDFS and Map-Reduce into separate projects has been a mixed bag -
maybe a net negative.
It has caused issues we as a community haven't dealt well with.
So, we need to make a decision - do we stick the course, get through
the painful process and emerge stronger or do we take a step back and
regress a decision we made back then? The current proposal to merge
committer lists seems like a regression.
