Hi folks, This strikes me as a bit odd. I think we have already discussed this at length and agreed that a release could proceed.
Since then, Arun and Owen have worked actively to incorporated community feedback into this release. All parties making Hadoop releases other then Apache have already incorporated most of the patches in this release into their products, including doug's organization. I don't see how Hadoop's users benefit from Apache not incorporating them into an Apache release. As previously discussed, all parties are welcome to champion altenative releases from Apache if they want to invest in making Apache Hadoop better. Thanks!!
