Github user BigBlueHat commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/incubator-streams/pull/284 The extraction of the JSON Schemas as standalone documents is actually a huge step forward for this project and a great "front door" to increase interest in activity here. OpenAPI (fka Swagger), RAML, and many other API generation/documentation tool kits all support JSON Schema. There's a growing interest (in part due to that) in JSON Schemas in general, and it can be expected that this will only increase in the coming years and that the JSON Schema community will grow and re-visit their in-progress v5, etc. Additionally, having a set of static resources (these JSON Schemas) as output from this project means vastly more people (not just Java developers) can not only benefit from them, but also contribute to them. Eventually, I'd love to see these published on the Apache Streams site directly and/or contributed to http://schemastore.org/json/ (and similar projects). The goal being here to provide "kit" (JSON Schemas mostly) that is broadly applicable to social stream data along side code that proves it's value (the Java bits). There's certainly more doors that open with this code than ones that close.
