Hi Jeff,

This sees like a great opportunity for you to add some value.  I'd welcome 
that.  It seems rude to me to beat up the folks who have been driving the 
majority of the work on a project to do more.  In general I don't think its 
good open source etiquete to ask others to contribute their time to address 
your concerns.  This is a community of volunteers after all.  

If you're wondering why I am asserting that arun and company have done the 
majority of the work on 23, check out the last graph on this post, or look at 
the commit logs.

If you are interested in doing some work, I'd suggest starting by wiring in the 
work on gridmix and pigmix that members of the our mapreduce and pig teams have 
contributed.  That's several man-years worth of testing contributed to the 
community.  These are the center pieces of our testing.  Go wild.

Follow your passion,

E14
