[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-12547) Remove hadoop-pipes

Colin Patrick McCabe created HADOOP-12547:
---------------------------------------------

             Summary: Remove hadoop-pipes
                 Key: HADOOP-12547
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12547
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe
            Assignee: Colin Patrick McCabe
            Priority: Minor


Development appears to have stopped on hadoop-pipes upstream for the last few years, aside from very basic maintenance.  Hadoop streaming seems to be a better alternative, since it supports more programming languages and is better implemented.

There were no responses to a message on the mailing list asking for users of Hadoop pipes... and in my experience, I have never seen anyone use this.  We should remove it to reduce our maintenance burden and build times.
