Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-6698: -------------------------------------- > HADOOP-6420 was completed with MAPREDUCE-1126 as a use case, but it's an > independent feature. Does it need to be backed out? If it has no other use cases, it should be backed out, no? If someone comes up with a use case, we can add it back, but, since it was added with MAPREDUCE-1126 as its only use case, and MAPREDUCE-1126 has stalled, I'd vote to back it out. > 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 > Assignee: Tom White > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.21.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-6698.patch, 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.
