-------------------------------------------------------------
Sean> I don't recall any mention ever of components having to be "integrated
with or powered by Apache Hadoop". Would you have any link?
As stated above and in the documentation, Apache Bigtop covers "integration,
packaging, deployment and validation of a big data management software
distribution based on Apache Hadoop". This does not imply in any way that all
components of Apache Bigtop must be "integrated with or powered by Apache
Hadoop".
But we should really give some rest to this ticket and move any remaining
question to the mailing-list. So tickets can remain actionable items.

> Update wiki for component requirements

> 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).
