Looks like it is going slow. so I will continue. To start with... I am proposing the following set of supported platforms (similar to last time)
OS: CentOS6, CentOS7, Fedora 20 SLES12, OpenSUSE 13.1 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Java: OpenJDK 7 Components: Zookeeper 3.4.6 (or later?) Hadoop 2.6.x HBase 0.98.x (latest; I am not sure if 1.0 will be ready in the 2 months?) Hive 0.14 Sqoop 1.99.4 Oozie 4.0.1 Giraph 1.1.0 Groovy 2.3 Hue 3.6.0 DataFU 1.0.0 Solr 4.6.0 Crunch 0.10.0 Spark 1.1.0 Phoenix 4.1.0 Tomcat 6.0.36 jsvc 1.0.15 What other new stuff do we feel like adding? To retire: Pig (is there enough interest in the community to keep it on?) Whirr 0.8.2 (seems to be headed to the Attic) Mahout 0.9 (unless we have a version working w/ Hadoop 2) Flume 1.5.0.1 (the project seems to be winding down?) Thoughts?
