Jakob Homan commented on HADOOP-6677:
-------------------------------------
So basically, +1 on this patch. Any changes to the semantics of
LiimitedPrivate should be hashed out in another JIRA.
> InterfaceAudience.LimitedPrivate should take a string not an enum

> Trying to keep the list of all possible components sharing limited private
> interfaces up to date is painful. As other subprojects beyond HDFS and MR
> use this interface it will only get worse (see PIG-1311). If it is converted
> to a string other subprojects can use it without requiring patches to common.
