Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on HDFS-5852:
-----------------------------------------------
Interesting. It could be a controversial thing, but here's my take. There is no
single HWX green, but if I were to pick one shade up, it would be the light
green in the logo. And looking at the screenshot you shared (I deployed 2.4
clusters, but never happened to look at HDFS UI), that one seems much darker.
If one focuses only on one color's shades, I can see why one would correlate
them.
Irrespective, since when is pure colors tied to a company? If this were the
case, any company with grey background will conflict with the colors we chose
in the YARN UI. And Oozie UI would essentially be same as Cloudera's? Not sure
if we can rule out colors in Apache software because vendors happen to include
those in their color palette.

> The HDFS UI colors are too close to HWX green.
> Here is a patch that steers clear of vendor colors.
> I made it a blocker thinking this something we'd want to fix before we
> release apache hadoop 2.3.0.
