Hadoop Developers, we'd like to let you know about a special developer offsite: http://hadoop-developer-offsite.eventbrite.com/
On the Friday after the summit, we're inviting committers from all Hadoop sub projects to get together for a day of real life camaraderie and a chance to attack some of the issues that are best solved face to face. We'll specifically focus on: * Understanding the major development challenges for the year ahead * Building consensus on the relative priorities of key upcoming features * Improving integration among sub projects * Best practices for packaging and distributing code (making life easier for the ops guys) We also realize that many developers that aren't yet committers will have valuable input, and we'd like to accommodate as many as we have room for. If you aren't a committer, but are actively involved in development, please register as an applicant, and we'll work with the committers on each project to squeeze in as many as we have room for. We know we can't accommodate everyone, but we will do our best, and will of course circulate notes from the meeting. Cheers, Christophe and the Cloudera Team -- get hadoop: cloudera.com/hadoop online training: cloudera.com/hadoop-training blog: cloudera.com/blog twitter: twitter.com/cloudera
