  = HDT (Hadoop Development Tools) =
 
  == Abstract ==
  Tools to support developing applications that use Apache Hadoop from
 within Eclipse.
 
  == Proposal ==
  Hadoop Development Tools are a set of extensions to Eclipse providing
 support for creating, launching and debugging distributed applications, as
 well as interacting with HDFS filesystems. This work will build on the
 existing Map Reduce Tools present in the Apache Hadoop project.
 
  == Background ==
  Map Reduce Tools have existed as part of contrib for Apache Hadoop.
 Unfortunately they are source tied to a single version of Hadoop, and
 development has stalled, with little movement past the Hadoop 0.20 line.
 
  == Rationale ==
  Support for newer versions of Hadoop from within Eclipse is regularly
 raised on the Hadoop mailing lists, so there is a clear need to drive these
 tools forward. Development tools generally are worked on separate from the
 target tools/platform, separating the tools out will allow for supporting
 multiple versions, so a developer could work with a heterogeneous
 environment.
 
  == Initial Goals ==
  * Give the tools project a home of its own.
  * Port current MapReduce tools feature set to all current release lines
 of Hadoop in a single Eclipse install.
  * Documentation and tutorials for all features.
  * Publish Eclipse update site, and join Eclipse marketplace listing.
  * Establish release cycle that combines support for Hadoop and Eclipse
 release cycles.
  * Look to build support for YARN, MRUnit and possibly other
 Hadoop-related projects.
 
  == Current Status ==
  The source for the current MapReduceTools lives in the contrib section
 of the Hadoop source. In its current implementation it is tied to the
 version of Hadoop against which it is compiled. The layout and API that it
 was developed with means that it can only be used with the 0.20 or 1.0
 Hadoop releases, the new layout and YARN api introduced with the 0.23 and
 2.0 lines are not supported.
 
 
  === Meritocracy ===
  Several people and companies have already expressed an interest in
 contributing to this project, and we hope to attract additional interest
 during the proposal discussion. We plan to invest and support a meritocracy
 that attracts, invites, and supports newcomers to build a vibrant and
  diverse community.
 
  === Community ===
  The target community is developers who are working developing Map/Reduce
 applications against Hadoop. Given the success of Hadoop the target group
 is likely to be quite large. Separation from the Hadoop community would
 make it easier to support multiple versions of hadoop, as well as merging
 the release cycles of Hadoop and Eclipse to provide predictable iteration
 and improvement in the toolset.
 
  === Core Developers ===
  The initial list of developers includes people experienced with Hadoop
 and developing against the Eclipse platform.
  * Adam Berry (amberry at yahoo-inc dot com)
  * Jeffrey Zemerick (jeffrrey at mtnfog dot com)
  * Evert Lammerts (Evert dot Lammerts at sara dot nl)
  * Simone Gianni (simoneg at apache dot org)
 
  === Alignment ===
  Hadoop Development Tools aligns with both Hadoop and Eclipse. Hadoop as
 the platform for the development target, and Eclipse as the IDE platform
 used as the base for the tools.
 
  == Known Risks ==
 
  === Orphaned Products ===
 
  === Inexperience with Open Source ===
  The committers have experience with Apache and Eclipse open source
 development.
 
  === Reliance on Salaried Developers ===
  Hadoop Development Tools will be developed with a mix of salaried and
 volunteer time.
 
  === Relationships with Other Apache Projects ===
  Hadoop Development Tools is closely related to Apache Hadoop.
 
  === An Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand ===
  Given the success of Hadoop and associated projects, Apache is the
 natural place for the Hadoop Development Tools. Chris Mattman suggested the
 Apache Incubator as appropriate on the Hadoop general mailing list
 following the success that MRUnit had taking the path from Hadoop contrib
 to an Apache top level project.
 
  == Documentation ==
  Documentation for the current tools can be found at
 http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/EclipsePlugIn
 
  == Initial Source ==
 
 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/trunk/hadoop-mapreduce-project/src/contrib/eclipse-plugin/
 
  ==  Source and Intellectual Property Submission Plan ==
  The source, and any suggested initial patches, are already hosted either
 in Apache’s Subversion or JIRA.
 
  ==  External Dependencies ==
  Eclipse Platform
  Eclipse Java Development Tools

  * Establish release cycle that combines support for Hadoop and Eclipse 
 release cycles.
  * Look to build support for YARN, MRUnit and possibly other Hadoop-related 
 projects.

 == Current Status ==
 The source for the current MapReduceTools lives in the contrib section of the 
 Hadoop source. In its current implementation it is tied to the version of 
 Hadoop against which it is compiled. The layout and API that it was developed 
 with means that it can only be used with the 0.20 or 1.0 Hadoop releases, the 
 new layout and YARN api introduced with the 0.23 and 2.0 lines are not 
 supported.


 === Meritocracy ===
 Several people and companies have already expressed an interest in 
 contributing to this project, and we hope to attract additional interest 
 during the proposal discussion. We plan to invest and support a meritocracy 
 that attracts, invites, and supports newcomers to build a vibrant and  
 diverse community.

 === Community ===
 The target community is developers who are working developing Map/Reduce 
 applications against Hadoop. Given the success of Hadoop the target group is 
 likely to be quite large. Separation from the Hadoop community would make it 
 easier to support multiple versions of hadoop, as well as merging the release 
 cycles of Hadoop and Eclipse to provide predictable iteration and improvement 
 in the toolset.

 === Core Developers ===
 The initial list of developers includes people experienced with Hadoop and 
 developing against the Eclipse platform.
  * Adam Berry (amberry at yahoo-inc dot com)
  * Jeffrey Zemerick (jeffrrey at mtnfog dot com)
  * Evert Lammerts (Evert dot Lammerts at sara dot nl)
  * Simone Gianni (simoneg at apache dot org)

 === Alignment ===
 Hadoop Development Tools aligns with both Hadoop and Eclipse. Hadoop as the 
 platform for the development target, and Eclipse as the IDE platform used as 
 the base for the tools.

 == Known Risks ==

 === Orphaned Products ===

 === Inexperience with Open Source ===
 The committers have experience with Apache and Eclipse open source 
 development.

 === Reliance on Salaried Developers ===
 Hadoop Development Tools will be developed with a mix of salaried and 
 volunteer time.

 === Relationships with Other Apache Projects ===
 Hadoop Development Tools is closely related to Apache Hadoop.

 === An Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand ===
 Given the success of Hadoop and associated projects, Apache is the natural 
 place for the Hadoop Development Tools. Chris Mattman suggested the Apache 
 Incubator as appropriate on the Hadoop general mailing list following the 
 success that MRUnit had taking the path from Hadoop contrib to an Apache top 
 level project.

 == Documentation ==
 Documentation for the current tools can be found at 
 http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/EclipsePlugIn

 == Initial Source ==
 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/trunk/hadoop-mapreduce-project/src/contrib/eclipse-plugin/

 ==  Source and Intellectual Property Submission Plan ==
 The source, and any suggested initial patches, are already hosted either in 
 Apache’s Subversion or JIRA.

 ==  External Dependencies ==
 Eclipse Platform
 Eclipse Java Development Tools

 ==  Cryptography ==
 Hadoop Development Tools likely does not fall into this area.

 ==  Required Resources ==
 === Mailing lists ===

 = HDT (Hadoop Development Tools) =

 == Abstract ==
 Tools to support developing applications that use Apache Hadoop from within 
 Eclipse.

 == Proposal ==
 Hadoop Development Tools are a set of extensions to Eclipse providing support 
 for creating, launching and debugging distributed applications, as well as 
 interacting with HDFS filesystems. This work will build on the existing Map 
 Reduce Tools present in the Apache Hadoop project.

 == Background ==
 Map Reduce Tools have existed as part of contrib for Apache Hadoop. 
 Unfortunately they are source tied to a single version of Hadoop, and 
 development has stalled, with little movement past the Hadoop 0.20 line.

 == Rationale ==
 Support for newer versions of Hadoop from within Eclipse is regularly raised 
 on the Hadoop mailing lists, so there is a clear need to drive these tools 
 forward. Development tools generally are worked on separate from the target 
 tools/platform, separating the tools out will allow for supporting multiple 
 versions, so a developer could work with a heterogeneous environment.

 == Initial Goals ==
  * Give the tools project a home of its own.
  * Port current MapReduce tools feature set to all current release lines of 
 Hadoop in a single Eclipse install.
  * Documentation and tutorials for all features.
  * Publish Eclipse update site, and join Eclipse marketplace listing.
  * Establish release cycle that combines support for Hadoop and Eclipse 
 release cycles.
  * Look to build support for YARN, MRUnit and possibly other Hadoop-related 
 projects.
