Luke Lu commented on HADOOP-7734:
---------------------------------

Actually the metrics2 framework is first checked into 20x branch and then some 
API evolved for good reasons in trunk and then 0.23, which was explicitly 
marked as incompatible changes. I personally don't want to support 0.20x style 
plugins and prefer giving a more explicit upgrade message, which is reasonable. 
Supporting both would make 0.23/trunk code very ugly.

> The new metrics2 framework was backported into the 20x branch, but the class

> reconcile the two so that they are API-compatible.
