Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-4944:
--------------------------------------
The current version of this patch changes the syntax of configurations so that
they may be nested. Couldn't this extension of the syntax be avoided by using
"range-inside", e.g., something like:
{code}
<include xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude";
href="foo.xml"
xpointer="xpointer(range-inside(//configuration))"/>
{code}
> Allow Xinclude in hadoop config file
