Unfortunately, we now have to sort out how to contribute several
person-years worth of work to Apache to let us unwind the Yahoo! git
repositories. We currently run two lines of Hadoop development, our
sustaining program (hadoop-0.20-sustaining) and hadoop-future.
I also plan to start pushing the hadoop-future work into a branch
called yahoo-merge(?) as individual commits from our internal git
repository. The goal of creating the branch is to enable faster review
and discussion. These patches will be individually run through the
jira, review, and commit process to be added to trunk.
As the final installment in this process, I've started a discussion on
us contributing a re-factor of Map-Reduce in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-279
.
We have a prototype we'd like to commit to a branch soon, where we
look forward to feedback. From there on, we would love to collaborate
to get it committed to trunk.
thanks,
