Hi Guozhang thanks for kicking this off. I made some comments in the Wiki (and we can continue the discussion there) but think this type of collaborative mailing list discussion and confluence writeup is a great way for different discussions about the same thing in different organizations to coalesce together in code.
This may also be a good place for folks looking to get their feet wet contributing code to-do so. /******************************************* Joe Stein Founder, Principal Consultant Big Data Open Source Security LLC http://www.stealth.ly Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> ********************************************/ On Tue, Aug 26, 2014 at 6:22 PM, Guozhang Wang <wangg...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello all, > > We want to kick off some discussions about error handling and logging > conventions.
