Tanks for your feedback. My comments are inline.

The README is *really* *really* minimalistic.

Do you think we need to update it prior to the release?

Well, the idea of incubation is to gather a community (besides the legal aspect). I would suggest to at least provide more detailed instruction how to get the things working in the wiki. Or did I miss those?

Why are both hadoop 0.16 and 0.17 included?

The idea was that people can build with 1 version back.

That sounds like a good idea ..at least in theory :)

However, at this
point it is not possible since hadoop interfaces change between each
version. We can remove hadoop16 I think. Do we need to do this cleanup
prior to the release?

It's a bit awkward to have 0.16 in there if you cannot use it at all.

(That said I was about to send a question to the dev list about using 0.16 with pig. I need to get it working with 0.16. Will that be a major hurdle? But let's discuss that in another thread)

Congrats to the RC. That's already a major step.

cheers
