Re: HCatalog to Hive Committership

2013-04-28 Thread Ashutosh Chauhan
I have worked closely with all 7 HCatalog committers and IMHO none of them
really require any mentorship per se. They are mature, level headed and
have understanding of hive codebase already.
I am willing to help out in any shape or form to accelerate the process.

Thanks,
Ashutosh

Thanks for your response. This clarifies a lot. I just have two follow-up 
questions:

1. Does reviewing patches have any bearing?
2. Is it a requirement that the aggregate of patches submitted touch all the 
hive components?

Also it'd be great to know if the other PMCs have a similar criteria?

 remember that shepherd language :) but the best bet is hanging out on the
 hive IRC, I would volunteer but I am fairly bugged down ATM with things not
 hive.

 Given that moving HCatalog into Hive is well underway. As an HCatalog

 HCatalog committers will be assigned shepherds - How do we go about

 HCatalog committers are expected to become Hive Committers in 6-8 months
 - Will there be a review done in 6-8 mos for the existing HCatalog

 I and a few of my colleagues (also HCat committers) are interested in

#4 on the list https://cwiki.apache.org/Hive/becomingacommitter.html:

   - help improve the website and the wiki

That's the Hive wiki, so contributions to the HCatalog wiki wouldn't count.
 But what if we decide to put all the HCatalog docs into the Hive wiki?
 Would that be a contribution to Hive?

I only ask because there's a ton of grunt work to be done on converting the
HCatalog and WebHCat documentation from xml to wiki markup.  But it's a
trick question, because the current plan is to give HCat docs a separate
wiki tab.  One might say it's equivalent but I'm not trying to define the
line between Hive and HCat -- I'm just scouting for volunteers to help with
the grunt work, hoping to give them an extra incentive.
