  continue to create more iterative releases and provide a great tool.

Shepherd notes:

The report adequately represents the state of the project.  My only minor
comment is that there appears to be a single individual responsible for
most of the commits; but, it is way too early in the podling's lifecycle
to determine whether or not there is a lack of community involvement.

Entered 11/09/2012

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:
- Finish on boarding the podling. Including infra work (waiting on a git
 repository to be created see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-5512),
 completing the podlings.xml and then IP clearance for code and committers.
- Porting and releasing existing codebase to support multiple versions of
 Hadoop in a single IDE instance. During this time building understanding of
 the Apache processes around working and releasing.
- Grow the podling community in terms of users and contributors.

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be aware of?
- As mentioned above, we have been waiting on
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-5512 for over three weeks, not
 having our git repository is a big barrier to progress.

How has the community developed since the last report?
- The only change in the community was the withdrawal of Chris Douglas as
 mentor, replaced by Suresh Marru.
- Committers are currently in the process of filing ICLAs

How has the project developed since the last report?
- The project hasn't moved a lot due to not yet completing the podling on
 boarding.
