Luke Lu commented on HADOOP-9421: --------------------------------- bq. We do not have a way to test such a major change this late in the game for 2.0. Well, Daryn will be doing such tests on Y clusters. I believe that we should try to make 2.0 friendly for backward compatibility. bq. a backward compatible change is possible because of the version number in the header. Switching on version number means that the community will be supporting some old cruft for a long time both in client and server. Not sure it's a worthy trade off for a week or two schedule. > Convert SASL to use ProtoBuf and add lengths for non-blocking processing > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-9421 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9421 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Sub-task > Affects Versions: 2.0.3-alpha > Reporter: Sanjay Radia > Assignee: Daryn Sharp > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: HADOOP-9421.patch, HADOOP-9421.patch, HADOOP-9421.patch, > HADOOP-9421.patch, HADOOP-9421.patch, HADOOP-9421-v2-demo.patch > > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
