Sean Mackrory commented on BIGTOP-718:
--------------------------------------
Although I've never really thought of Cassandra as part of the Hadoop
ecosystem, it looks like a pretty good case could be made for it if there was
indeed interest in adding it: http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/HadoopSupport.
It's even listed on hadoop.apache.org as a "Hadoop-related project".
I don't believe I put anything in the wiki that was actually disputed, though.
There's nothing that attempts to define "based on Hadoop" any more than the
board resolution does. We are already defining the project in terms of Hadoop
in multiple other locations on the site (including the home page) so I didn't
consider that concept a new one at all.

> Key: BIGTOP-718
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-718
> Project: Bigtop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Sean Mackrory
> Assignee: Sean Mackrory

> I think some updates are in order for this Wiki page in order to more
> accurately reflect the goals of the project:
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BIGTOP/Requirement+for+adding+a+new+component+to+Bigtop+distribution.
> For starters, it should have a more prominent link on the Wiki and a summary
> on the project home page. Not only is it going to be an increasingly common
> question, but it's an important part of defining what "Bigtop" is really all
> about. I know when I first started on the project it was the first thing I
> looked for.
> Second, we say projects have to be "Big Data"-related. Judging by other
> documents* and existing discussions regarding new components, it seems like
> we really mean to say "Hadoop"-related, and I think the extra focus would be
> good (having said that, I do think of Spark as Hadoop-related).
