All, I would like to start a discussion on the possibility of removing the package line length checkstyle rule (HADOOP-13603 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13603>).
While working on various aspects of YARN container runtimes, all of my pre-commit jobs would fail as the package line length exceeded 80 characters. While I'm all for automated checks, I feel checks need to be enforceable and provide value. Fixing the package line length error does not improve readability or maintainability of the code, and IMO should be removed. While on this topic, are there other automated checks that are difficult to enforce or you feel are not providing value (perhaps the 150 line method length)? Please share your thoughts. Thank you, Shane Kumpf
