---------------------------------------------

Hey Arun,

Wow, thanks for reviving one of my favorite old issues! One question: how much 
code does the prototype share with Hadoop MapReduce? My understanding is that 
it's mostly new code. If that's the case, have you considered creating a 
separate Apache Incubator project for the new two-level scheduler? Mesos, for 
example, has similar aims and is going the Apache Incubator route. I am aware 
of at least one other effort on this front, and having the projects gestate in 
the Incubator rather than as a branch of Hadoop would allow them to release 
more regularly while young and would be more in line with the dreams of the 
project split (having HDFS and MapReduce developed as separate projects). This 
seems like a great opportunity to continue the trend of keeping individual ASF 
projects small and focused so that releases require less work and can happen 
more regularly. What do you think?

Later,
Jeff
