As I said, my personal preference is different; but if you feel strongly I'm happy to get to consensus and preempt a long discussion. So, here is the list of folks who have either contributed or reviewed-and-committed (a handful of) YARN patches in the last 18 months: * Alejandro Abdelnur * Arun C. Murthy * Chris Douglas * Devaraj Das * Hitesh Shah * Jonathan Eagles * Luke Lu * Mahadev Konar * Robert Evans * Siddharth Seth * Sharad Agarwal * Thomas Graves * Tom White * Vinod Kumar V Hope that it reasonable and we can get back to our caves to crank out code. *smile* thanks, Arun > Cheers, > Tom > > On Tue, Aug 14, 2012 at 2:27 PM, Robert Evans <ev...@yahoo-inc.com> wrote: >> I personally am +1 for only pulling over committers from MR that have been >> active on YARN.
