Bernd,
We would divide the derived code into two categories: that which we modified
only slightly (for example to allow us to extend it) and that which we modified
heavily. Now that we are able to interact openly, we hope to supply much of
that back to the original projects. There is a detailed overview below. We
identified these by searching for "copyright" in our code. The total count
came to just over 14,000 lines. We use "heavily" as a qualitative assessment
of how much we modified, but we could certainly come up with quantitative
assessments.
5400 lines: slightly modified versions of Hadoop BCFile and related classes
(our current file format extends BCFile)
4300 lines: heavily modified versions of MapFile and SequenceFile
(no longer our default file format, but still included for backward
compatibility)
2000 lines: heavily modified versions of HBase BlockCache and related files
(Adam didn't count the tests when he said 1500 lines)
1300 lines: heavily modified versions of Hadoop BloomFilters
419 lines: modified Hadoop TeraSortIngest to sort data using Accumulo
325 lines: our Value is an immutable version of Hadoop BytesWritable
142 lines: modified ClassLoader based on commons-jci ReloadingClassLoader

HBase comprises a query caching layer (block cache, index cache, multi-level
LRU logic, etc.).
So, you are saying more than 10% of the non-generated code base (and you are
not counting lib-style uses/JARs here, right?) is derived from other Apache
code? That seems to be unusual. Just curious, could you elaborate a bit
about why you did that amd what kind of code that is? Thank you.
Bernd
