Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-8152: ------------------------------------------ Even marking something as Public+Evolving has certain implications. I don't know if I'm comfortable with some of these being marked public. Will the impacted parties understand when we break them? (It is inevitable we're going to change reloginFromKeytab and likely even remove it as part of reworking UGI.) > Expand public APIs for security library classes > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-8152 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8152 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: security > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Aaron T.
