Steve Loughran created HADOOP-8607:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Replace references to "Dr Who" in codebase with
@BigDataBorat
Key: HADOOP-8607
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8607
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: util
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha, 1.0.3
Reporter: Steve Loughran
Priority: Minor
People complain that having "Dr Who" in the code causes confusion and isn't
appropriate in Hadoop now that it has matured.
I propose that we replace this anonymous user ID with {{@BigDataBorat}}. This
will
# Increase brand awareness of @BigDataBorat and their central role in the Big
Data ecosystem.
# Drive traffic to twitter, and increase their revenue. As contributors to the
Hadoop platform, this will fund further Hadoop development.
Patching the code is straightforward; no easy tests, though we could monitor
twitter followers to determine rollout of the patch in the field.
