thx for doing this, I'll keep an eye on the builds one question: which jdk8? Some of the Hadoop builds (example YARN) are crashing the JVM..there's a whole list of jdk8 options, including, for ubuntu hosts only, openjdk. Should we switch the jvm for our nightly builds to open jdk 8? > At some point, we’ll switch the other projects over, dealing with any > feedback from the hadoop-common trial.
