Chris Douglas commented on HADOOP-6698: --------------------------------------- bq. This issue is fundamentally about backing out changes related to HADOOP-1126, since you've rejected that patch. In that light, HADOOP-6420, HADOOP-6438 and HADOOP-6443 should perhaps also be backed out. HADOOP-6420 was completed with MAPREDUCE-1126 as a use case, but it's an independent feature. Does it need to be backed out? Also, HADOOP-6438 was closed as invalid, not committed, so fortunately there's nothing to be backed out, there. > Revert the io.serialization package to 0.20.2's api > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-6698 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6698 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: io > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.21.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-6698.patch, HADOOP-6698.patch > > > I have a lot of concern about the usability of the new generic serialization > framework. Toward that end, I've filed a jira for improving it. There is > resistance to pushing a new API into 0.21 at the last moment, so we should > back out the changes rather than introducing a new api in 0.21 and > deprecating it in 0.22. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
