Copying common-dev.
Summarizing the below discussion: What should be the tools layout after
mavenization?
Option #1: Have hadoop-tools at top level i.e
trunk/
hadoop-tools/
hadoop-distcp/
Pros:
Cleaner layout.
In future, tools could be released separately from Hadoop releases
Cons: Difficult to maintain
Option #2: Keep the tools aggregator module for MapReduce/HDFS/Common if they
are depending on MapReduce/HDFS/Common respectively.
For ex:
hadoop-mapreduce-project/
hadoop-mr-tools/
hadoop-distcp/
Pros: Easy to maintain
Cons: Still has tight coupling with related projects.
Personally, I'm fine with any of the above options. Looking for suggestions and
reaching a consensus on this.
Thanks
Amareshwari

I have a feeling this discussion should get moved to common-dev or even to
general.
My #1 question is if tools is basically contrib reborn. If not, what makes it
different?
