Allen Wittenauer resolved HADOOP-9082.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

I'm going to close this as fixed.  I don't think there is much to do here 
really.

> Simplify scripting usages so that parallel platform-dependent scripts are 
> simple to maintain

>                 Key: HADOOP-9082
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9082
>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Matt Foley
>
> This issue was formerly titled "Select and document a platform-independent 
> scripting language for use in Hadoop environment" and was discussed in the 
> common-dev@ threads "[PROPOSAL] introduce Python as build-time and run-time 
> dependency for Hadoop and throughout Hadoop stack" and "[VOTE] introduce 
> Python as build-time and run-time dependency for Hadoop and throughout Hadoop 
> stack".
> In that discussion the community consensus rejected the idea of using Python 
> as a cross-platform scripting language.
> It is now proposed to follow up Allen's suggestions below about simplifying 
> the use of scripts in Hadoop, bring more functionality into core code, and 
> try to leave us with only trivial usages of scripting that can readily be 
> maintained in as many platform-specific scripting languages as necessary.
