I am happy to announce that I was able to get the license on the Yahoo! Hadoop tutorial updated from Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License to Apache 2.0. I have filed HADOOP-8477 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8477> to pull the tutorial into the Hadoop project, and to update it accordingly. I am going to be very busy the next little while and I am hoping that those in the community that want this can help drive it and possibly break it down into subtasks to get the tutorial up to date. I am very happy to help out, but like I said it may be a while before I am able to do much on this.

There are many folks that use this tutorial, so I think this a good effort in favor of the Hadoop community.It would be nice if Yahoo! donate this work, because, I have some ideas behind this, for example: to release a Spanish version of the tutorial.

Marcos, That is a great idea to be able to update the tutorial, especially if the community is interested in helping to do so. We are looking into the best way to do this. The idea right now is to donate this to the Hadoop project so that the community can keep it up to date, but we need some time to jump through all of the corporate hoops to get this to happen. We have a lot going on right now, so if you don't see any progress on this please feel free to ping me and bug me about it. -- Bobby Evans On 4/4/12 8:15 AM, "Jagat Singh" <jagatsi...@gmail.com> wrote: Hello Marcos Yes , Yahoo tutorials are pretty old but still they explain the concepts of Map Reduce , HDFS beautifully. The way in which tutorials have been defined into sub sections , each builing on previous one is awesome. I remember when i started i was digged in there for many days. The tutorials are lagging now from new API point of view. Lets have some documentation session one day , I would love to Volunteer to update those tutorials if people at Yahoo take input from outside world :) Regards, Jagat ----- Original Message ----- From: Marcos Ortiz Sent: 04/04/12 08:32 AM To: common-user@hadoop.apache.org, 'hdfs-u...@hadoop.apache.org <%27hdfs-u...@hadoop.apache.org> ', mapreduce-u...@hadoop.apache.org Subject: Yahoo Hadoop Tutorial with new APIs? Regards to all the list. There are many people that use the Hadoop Tutorial released by Yahoo at http://developer.yahoo.com/hadoop/tutorial/ http://developer.yahoo.com/hadoop/tutorial/module4.html#chaining The main issue here is that, this tutorial is written with the old APIs? (Hadoop 0.18 I think). Is there a project for update this tutorial to the new APIs? to Hadoop 1.0.2 or YARN (Hadoop 0.23) Best wishes -- Marcos Luis OrtÃz Valmaseda (@marcosluis2186) Data Engineer at UCI http://marcosluis2186.posterous.com http://www.uci.cu/ <http://www.uci.cu/>
