[jira] [Created] (PIG-2097) Rename Pig to "Hamster"
Rename Pig to "Hamster"
-----------------------
Key: PIG-2097
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2097
Project: Pig
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: site
Affects Versions: 0.8.1
Environment: All
Reporter: Milind Bhandarkar
Assignee: Olga Natkovich
Fix For: 0.10
When Pig was incubated, I remember a few folks expressing religious reservations about the name. Now that the Hadoop ecosystem is becoming more mature (i.e. GigaOm, TechCrunch etc know what Hadoop is), I believe the following conversation on Twitter should convince everyone that Pig should be renamed.
@alanfgates: @rjurney I look forward to seeing a #Pig app in AppStore
@rjurney: @squarecog @alanfgates Let's go for it.
@squarecog: @alanfgates @rjurney the way the market is going, I bet the three of us could get a good 5 Mil funding for that.
@rjurney: @squarecog @alanfgates Since nobody else did a Pig company, it's sort of our moral duty.
@techmilnd: @rjurney @squarecog @alanfgates ummm.. Could there be a reason why there are no "rumors" of a pig spinoff? ;-)
@rjurney: @techmilind @squarecog @alanfgates It's gotta be the name.
@techmilind: @rjurney @squarecog @alanfgates Pig not kosher ? Ok, I will file a jira to rename it "hamster". All cool hadoop projects start with H anyway.
@squarecog: @techmilind favorited.
So, there you go. I already have a +1 from a committer (although outside of this Apache thing.)

Milind Bhandarkar resolved PIG-2097.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Now that the only sponsor is backing out, closing this as won't fix. I reserve the right to create a hadoop-based hamster project, though :-)

----------------------------------------
On second thought, hamsters aren't kosher either.

[jira] [Commented] (PIG-2097) Rename Pig to "Hamster"

Ted Dunning commented on PIG-2097:
----------------------------------
Frankly, hbase already has this covered. The hbase master process, normally called hmaster is often mistyped or misread has hamster.
It is very distressing to see messages like "Hamster out of memory leads to crash".
