Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-9905:
----------------------------------------
Alejandro, I'm still up for dropping the dependency on ZK
We can't have a "no changes to POMs or dependencies in Hadoop 2" policy. To do
so says "we can't ever upgrade any POM we depend on, in case transient
dependencies change"
# we explicitly say "no guarantees about dependencies" in the compatibility
document. That was not an accident.
# this only affects downstream apps that work via maven, not production code
# we can mark it as 'incompatible" in the changes.
The patch isn't ready -yet- as we need to make sure YARN is up with it. But
otherwise, I will eventually +1 a patch that drops ZK from hadoop-cliient
> remove dependency of zookeeper for hadoop-client
