All, I got my hbase jumpstart with the cloudera RPMs. Cloudera told me the HBase guys created them (im assuming those guys are on list). I have not been able to find the RPMs anywhere besides cloudera.
Cloudera did provide me the source RPMs, I have noticed however that CE was still at v 0.20.0, and I was missing many things I needed. I patched in 0.20.2. Unless someone else is doing this already, I would like to host an RPM repo for HBase with the latest and greatest (stable) HBase release. Any thoughts? Edward
