[VOTE] Pig to become a TLP
I propose that Pig become a top level Apache project.
The Pig development community has already voted on and approved this
proposal. In summary, the community voted that all current active
committers (listed at http://hadoop.apache.org/pig/whoweare.html ) as
of August 18 2010 should become PMC members, and that Olga Natkovich
should be the PMC chair. They also agreed that adopting bylaws should
be among the first tasks of the new PMC. Full details of the vote can
be seen at http://bit.ly/c3GDyl
Please vote on sending this proposal to the Apache Board.
Below is a draft resolution to be sent to the Apache Board:
Establish the Apache Pig Project
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it to be in the best
interests of the Foundation and consistent with the
Foundation's purpose to establish a Project Management
Committee charged with the creation and maintenance of
open-source software related to parallel analysis of large
data sets for distribution at no charge to the public.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that a Project Management
Committee (PMC), to be known as the "Apache Pig Project",
be and hereby is established pursuant to Bylaws of the
Foundation; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the Apache Pig Project be and hereby is
responsible for the creation and maintenance of software
related to parallel analysis of large data sets; and be
it further
RESOLVED, that the office of "Vice President, Apache Pig" be
and hereby is created, the person holding such office to
serve at the direction of the Board of Directors as the chair
of the Apache Pig Project, and to have primary responsibility
for management of the projects within the scope of
responsibility of the Apache Pig Project; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the persons listed immediately below be and
hereby are appointed to serve as the initial members of the
Apache Pig Project:
* Benjamin Reed <br...@apache.org>

* Ashutosh Chauhan <ha...@apache.org>
* Richard Ding <rd...@apache.org>
* Dmitriy Ryaboy <dv...@apache.org>
* Thejas Nair <th...@apache.org>
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Olga Natkovich
be appointed to the office of Vice President, Apache Pig, to
serve in accordance with and subject to the direction of the
Board of Directors and the Bylaws of the Foundation until
death, resignation, retirement, removal or disqualification,
or until a successor is appointed; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the initial Apache Pig PMC be and hereby is
tasked with the creation of a set of bylaws intended to
encourage open development and increased participation in the
Apache Pig Project; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the Apache Pig Project be and hereby
is tasked with the migration and rationalization of the Apache
Hadoop Pig sub-project; and be it further

I can only speak for myself, but in the original discussion thread on
pig-dev (http://bit.ly/byD7L8 ) I discussed why I changed my vote over
the course of the last few months.

While we still want to design Pig and Pig Latin in such a way that
there may be separate implementations that do not run on Hadoop,
nothing in this regard has changed in the last few months. What did
change is that I (and I think others) realized that being connected
technically to Hadoop does not mean we need to be connected in our
governance.

Apache does not require that projects raise any finances. Pig is (as
it has been) supported by the contributions of those choose to work on
it and those who are paid to work on it.

Wow, that's a huge vote of confidence. Thanks. But no.
Contributions to Pig can be made (as before) in code, documentation,
user feedback, etc. You can donate money to Apache itself, which goes
to support the infrastructure for Pig and all Apache projects. For
more info see http://apache.org/foundation/support-apache.html (I
have no idea if that is tax deductible or not.)

Re: [VOTE] Pig to become a TLP
Posted by hc busy <hc...@gmail.com>.
+1, Congrads on the near unanimous vote for progress.
Btw, can somebody tell me what the change was from March when this was
discussed and now? At that time, every one seem to have felt that Pig can
only handle Hadoop as backend and doesn't make sense for it to become a TLP
by itself. In fact, I remember a ticket to remove the possibility of a
different backend. What did I miss?

You have probably heard by now that there is a discussion going on in the
Hadoop PMC as to whether a number of the subprojects (Hbase, Avro,
Zookeeper, Hive, and Pig) should move out from under the Hadoop umbrella and
become top level Apache projects (TLP). This discussion has picked up
recently since the Apache board has clearly communicated to the Hadoop PMC
that it is concerned that Hadoop is acting as an umbrella project with many
disjoint subprojects underneath it. They are concerned that this gives
Apache little insight into the health and happenings of the subproject
communities which in turn means Apache cannot properly mentor those
communities.
The purpose of this email is to start a discussion within the Pig community
about this topic. Let me cover first what becoming TLPwould mean for Pig,
and then I'll go into what options I think we as a community have.
Becoming a TLP would mean that Pig would itself have a PMC that would report
directly to the Apache board. Who would be on the PMC would be something we
as a community would need to decide. Common options would be to say all
active committers are on the PMC, or all active committers who have been a
committer for at least a year. We would also need to elect a chair of the
PMC. This lucky person would have no additional power, but would have the
additional responsibility of writing quarterly reports on Pig's status for
Apache board meetings, as well as coordinating with Apache to get accounts
for new committers, etc. For more information see
http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html#roles
Becoming a TLP would not mean that we are ostracized from the Hadoop
community. We would continue to be invited to Hadoop Summits, HUGs, etc.
Since all Pig developers and users are by definition Hadoop users, we would
continue to be a strong presence in the Hadoop community.
I see three ways that we as a community can respond to this:
1) Say yes, we want to be a TLP now.
2) Say yes, we want to be a TLP, but not yet. We feel we need more time to
mature. If we choose this option we need to be able to clearly articulate
how much time we need and what we hope to see change in that time.
3) Say no, we feel the benefits for us staying with Hadoop outweigh the
drawbacks of being a disjoint subproject. If we choose this, we need to be
able to say exactly what those benefits are and why we feel they will be
compromised by leaving the Hadoop project.
There may other options that I haven't thought of. Please feel free to
suggest any you think of.
Questions? Thoughts? Let the discussion begin.
Alan.

So far I haven't seen any feedback on this. Apache has asked the Hadoop PMC
to submit input in April on whether some subprojects should be promoted to
TLPs. We, the Pig community, need to give feedback to the Hadoop PMC on how
we feel about this. Please make your voice heard.
So now I'll head my own call and give my thoughts on it.
The biggest advantage I see to being a TLP is a direct connection to Apache.
Right now all of the Pig team's interaction with Apache is through the
Hadoop PMC. Being directly connected to Apache would benefit Pig team
members who would have a better view into Apache. It would also raise our
profile in Apache and thus make other projects more aware of us.
However, I am concerned about loosing Pig's explicit connection to Hadoop.
This concern has a couple of dimensions. One, Hadoop and MapReduce are the
current flavor of the month in computing. Given that Pig shares a name with
the common farm animal, it's hard to be sure based on search statistics.
But Google trends shows that "hadoop" is searched on much more frequently
than "hadoop pig" or "apache pig" (see
http://www.google.com/trends?q=hadoop%2Chadoop+pig). I am guessing that
most Pig users come from Hadoop users who discover Pig via Hadoop's website.
Loosing that subproject tab on Hadoop's front page may radically lower the
number of users coming to Pig to check out our project. I would argue that
this benefits Hadoop as well, since high level languages like Pig Latin have
the potential to greatly extend the user base and usability of Hadoop.
Two, being explicitly connected to Hadoop keeps our two communities aware of
each others needs. There are features proposed for MR that would greatly
help Pig. By staying in the Hadoop community Pig is better positioned to
advocate for and help implement and test those features. The response to
this will be that Pig developers can still subscribe to Hadoop mailing
lists, submit patches, etc. That is, they can still be part of the Hadoop
community. Which reinforces my point that it makes more sense to leave Pig
in the Hadoop community since Pig developers will need to be part of that
community anyway.
Finally, philosophically it makes sense to me that projects that are tightly
connected belong together. It strikes me as strange to have Pig as a
TLP completely
dependent on another TLP. Hadoop was originally a subproject of Lucene. It
moved out to be a TLP when it became obvious that Hadoop had become
independent of and useful apart from Lucene. Pig is not in that position
relative to Hadoop.
So, I'm -1 on Pig moving out. But this is a soft -1. I'm open to being
persuaded that I'm wrong or my concerns can be addressed while still having
Pig as a TLP.
Alan.

Over time, Pig is increasing its coupling to Hadoop (for good reasons),
rather than decreasing it. If and when Pig becomes a viable entity without
hadoop around, it might make sense as a TLP. As is, I think becoming a TLP
will only introduce unnecessary administrative and bureaucratic headaches.
So my vote is also -1.

I agree with Alan and Dmitriy - Pig is tightly coupled with hadoop, and
heavily influenced by its roadmap. I think it makes sense to continue as a
sub-project of hadoop.

I see this as a multi-part question. Looking back at some of the
significant roadmap/existential questions asked in the last 12 months, I
see the following:
1. With the introduction of SQL, what is the philosophy of Pig (I sent
an email about this approximately 9 months ago)
2. What is the approach to support backward compatibility in Pig (Alan
had sent an email about this 3 months ago)
3. Should Pig be a TLP (the current email thread).
Here is my take on answering the aforementioned questions.
The initial philosophy of Pig was to be backend agnostic. It was
designed as a data flow language. Whenever a new language is designed,
the syntax and semantics of the language have to be laid out. The syntax
is usually captured in the form of a BNF grammar. The semantics are
defined by the language creators. Backward compatibility is then a
question of holding true to the syntax and semantics. With Pig, in
addition to the language, the Java APIs were exposed to customers to
implement UDFs (load/store/filter/grouping/row transformation etc),
provision looping since the language does not support looping constructs
and also support a programmatic mode of access. Backward compatibility
in this context is to support API versioning.
Do we still intend to position as a data flow language that is backend
agnostic? If the answer is yes, then there is a strong case for making
Pig a TLP.
Are we influenced by Hadoop? A big YES! The reason Pig chose to become a
Hadoop sub-project was to ride the Hadoop popularity wave. As a
consequence, we chose to be heavily influenced by the Hadoop roadmap.
Like a good lawyer, I also have rebuttals to Alan's questions :)
1. Search engine popularity - We can discuss this with the Hadoop team
and still retain links to TLP's that are coupled (loosely or tightly).
2. Explicit connection to Hadoop - I see this as logical connection v/s
physical connection. Today, we are physically connected as a
sub-project. Becoming a TLP, will not increase/decrease our influence on
the Hadoop community (think Logical, Physical and MR Layers :)
3. Philosophy - I have already talked about this. The tight coupling is
by choice. If Pig continues to be a data flow language with clear syntax
and semantics then someone can implement Pig on top of a different
backend. Do we intend to take this approach?
I just wanted to offer a different opinion to this thread. I strongly
believe that we should think about the original philosophy. Will we have
a Pig standards committee that will decide on the changes to the
language (think C/C++) if there are multiple backend implementations?
I will reserve my vote based on the outcome of the philosophy and
backward compatibility discussions. If we decide that Pig will be
treated and maintained like a true language with clear syntax and
semantics then we have a strong case to make it into a TLP. If not, we
should retain our existing ties to Hadoop and make Pig into a data flow
language for Hadoop.

I concur with Santhosh here. I think main question we need to answer
here is how close our ties are with Hadoop currently and how it will
be in future ? When Pig was originally designed the intent was to keep
it backend neutral, so much so that there was a reference backend
implementation (also known as local engine) which had nothing to do
with Hadoop. But things have changed since then. Hadoop's local mode
is adopted in favor of Pig's own local mode. We have moved from being
backend agnostic to hadoop favoring. And while this was happening, it
seems we tried to keep Pig Latin language independent of hadoop
backend while Pig runtime started to make use of hadoop concepts.
Apart from design decisions, this move also has a practical impact on
our codebase. Since we adopted Hadoop more closely, we got rid of an
extra layer of abstraction and instead started using similar
abstractions already existing in Hadoop. This has a positive impact
that it simplified the codebase and provides tighter integration with
Hadoop.
So, if we are continuing in a direction where Hadoop is our only
backend (or atleast a favored one), close ties to Hadoop are useful
because of the reasons Alan and Dmitriy pointed out. if not, then I
think moving out to TLP makes sense. Since, there is no efforts which
I am aware of, is trying to plug in a different backend for Pig, I
think maintaining close ties with Hadoop is useful for Pig. In future
when there is a different distributed computing platform comes up
which we want to use as backend, we can revisit our decision. So, as
for things stand today I am -1 to move out of Hadoop.
And I would also like to reiterate my point that though Pig runtime
may continue to get closer to Hadoop, we shall keep Pig Latin
completely backend agnostic.

This is awesome!!! As much as I hate PJM's for wasting time at all the
places that I've worked at, I think formalizing the management group(PMC) to
openly and clearly determine feature roadmap and dev schedule is the best
thing pig can have.
I once commented to my co-worker (also heavy pig user) that pig's
organization (with all due respect to all you hardworking people) is like a
pigsty! documentations all over the place, javadocs from three versions ago,
much of the documentation doesn't match actual features... links to the
download page is broken.
If you look at cascading's website... it's so much cleaner. (Of course... we
still use pig because it works well)
I think as TLP, pig will receive better marketing and better support in a
way that will propel it both in popularity and in the amount of support it
receives.
As a user, that change will be good for me.

I agree with Ashutosh and Santhosh. Just based on the current direction of
the project I think we are more closely tied with Hadoop now (with Pig 0.7,
our load/store interfaces are very closely tied with Hadoop) - hence for now
my vote would be a -1 to be a TLP - if there is change in that
direction/philosophy to be really backend agnostic I think we should revisit
this question.

I agree that Pig's code documentation is in sad shape. I think our user
documentation for each release is good, of limited. I hope that our
documents on wiki (such as PigJournal) help people understand our roadmap.
Please let us know if you disagree so we can find ways to improve it.
That said, it isn't clear to me how Pig being a TLP will solve that. The
current committers or some subset thereof (see original message) would
become the PMC. Other than having expanded powers to vote on releases and
who becomes new committers, the role of these new PMC members would not
change much. They won't have anymore time to address documentation and
communication issues. We need to find a way to address those no matter what
governance framework or community Pig is in.

Prognostication is a difficult business. Of course I'd love it if someday
there is an ISO Pig Latin committee (with meetings in cool exotic places)
deciding the official standard for Pig Latin. But that seems like saying in
your start up's business plan, "When we reach Google's size, then we'll do
x". If there ever is an ISO Pig Latin standard it will be years off.
As others have noted, staying tight to Hadoop now has many advantages, both
in technical and adoption terms. Hence my advocacy of keeping Pig Latin
Hadoop agnostic while tightly integrating the backend. Which is to say that
in my view, Pig is Hadoop specific now, but there may come a day when that
is no longer true. Whether Pig will ever move past just running on Hadoop
to running in other parallel systems won't be known for years to come.
Given that, do you think it makes sense to say that Pig stays a subproject
for now, but if it someday grows beyond Hadoop only it becomes a TLP? I
could agree to that stance.
Alan.

I guess this is more of a suggestion for roadmap than TLP discussion, I
think the PMC/committers can create a dedicate position what maintains the
web/doc's. Somebody who yell and screams until the doc's are in sync with
the implementation before the release.
Because TLP is an elevation of status in addition to internal
re-organization. I think it might to create the PR needed to attract the
talents to fill in that job...

haha!!! Some exotic place like Yahoo's HQ in sunny Sunnyvale California?
I guess it feels like it depends on the roadmap more than roadmap depends on
it. In terms of positioning, a TLP would appear to potential users who are
evaluating alternatives to consider it as _the_ choice as opposed to one of
the choices. If the ambition is to take it there, then TLP, as useless as it
may seem right now, might actually be worth the effort to attain.
I mean, would you rather wait until Hive makes TLP and then play catch up? I
mean, I can kinda see them doing that...

To the subject at hand -- I don't think TLP standing has the PR value you

flexibility, etc -- those are far more important.

Oops, I didn't read your whole message... I think TLP could be part of the
roadmap: Planned publicity, like planned pregnancy, is a good thing.
And on the way there, we should add dedicated resource that updates
documentation and links on the website... :-)

I agree with the stance that we remain in Hadoop until we see more
compelling reasons, such as Pig go beyond Hadoop happens. Currently I cannot
fully weight the advantage and disadvantage of becoming a TLP. But provides
this is a point of no return, I don't want to move unless we do have a
strong motivation. We can always choose to become TLP later when we feel
more convinced to that.
