Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Bigtop 0.5.0 release
Hi!
Apache Bigtop community is happy to announce our first
TLP release of Bigtop 0.5.0. This latest release is based
on Hadoop 2.0.2-alpha and it provides full integration
between the following Hadoop ecosystem projects:
* Apache Zookeeper 3.4.5
* Apache Flume 1.3.0
* Apache HBase 0.94.2
* Apache Pig 0.10.0
* Apache Hive 0.9.0
* Apache Sqoop 1.4.2
* Apache Oozie 3.3.0
* Apache Whirr 0.8.1
* Apache Mahout 0.7
* Apache Solr (SolrCloud) 4.0.0
* Apache Crunch (incubating) 0.4.0
* DataFu 0.0.4
* Hue 2.1.0
This release has been tested and provides binary
convenience artifacts for the following set of Linux distros:
* RHEL/CentOS 5 and 6
* Fedora 16 and 17
* SLES 11
* OpenSUSE 12.2
* Ubuntu LTS Lucid and Precise
* Ubuntu Quantal
We would like to invite everybody to join the developer
community or simply give the binary Bigtop distribution a try.
All you have to do is pick your favorite Linux Distro and
apt-get/yum/zypper install whatever tickles your fancy:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BIGTOP/How+to+install+Hadoop+distribution+from+Bigtop+0.5.0
Finally, I would like to apologize for this wide
distribution of the announcement and invite everybody
who's interested in receiving future Bigtop announcements
to join annou...@bigtop.apache.org
The idea behind annou...@bigtop.apache.org is to be a very
low-traffic mailing list specifically dedicated to:
* release announcements
* security announcements
* feedback gathering for future releases of Bigtop
I can't stress enough how important this last point is for us. It
is pretty much impossible to build a comprehensive Hadoop
distribution without members of individual projects giving
us feedback on which versions to target, etc. Please do
subscribe -- we promise less than half a dozen emails
per quarter.
Once again -- thanks and enjoy the Bigtop Hadoop distribution!
Your faithful release manager for Bigtop 0.5.0,
Roman.
