             Summary: Consider forking twitter commons java code
                 Key: AURORA-1213
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AURORA-1213
             Project: Aurora
          Issue Type: Story
          Components: Scheduler
            Reporter: Bill Farner
            Priority: Minor


We currently have 32  dependencies on libraries from Twitter commons.  

{noformat}
$ grep com.twitter.common build.gradle  | wc -l
      32
{noformat}

While these libraries have generally served us well, this number of dependencies creates a transitive web that inhibits us from upgrading our direct dependencies.

Consider removing these dependencies and replacing our uses of them with forks of the code in our repository.  My hunch is that we use relatively insignificant portions of them overall.  However, if we end up just cloning the sources and maintaining them ourselves, we should back out.
