Gabriel Reid commented on CRUNCH-16:
------------------------------------

Josh, that's almost exactly what I was talking about, but I was actually 
thinking of having the CAN_COMBINE_SPECIFIC_AND_REFLECT_SCHEMAS automatically 
initialized (in a static initializer block) by a kind of mini-test that would 
actually actually attempt to combine both in a single schema and set the static 
field as a result of that test. However, I'm kind of on the fence as to whether 
it's worth it adding those kinds of moving parts to satisfy a use case that 
probably won't come up much. 

I'm ok with it either way, but I don't mind taking a crack at implementing that 
idea if you think it's worth including it.

> Right now, the compile time classpath doesn't exactly match the runtime 
> classpath. For example, Hadoop CDH3u4 comes with slf4j-api-1.4.3 while Crunch 
> references slf4j-api-1.6.3. This could result in NoSuchMethodError and other 
> nasty problems.
> We have to make sure that version numbers match (check "mvn dependency:tree") 
> and that we don't ship artifacts that are already present on the runtime 
> classpath. If our dependencies introduce incompatible transitive 
> dependencies, we might have to downgrade them.
> Note: Maven's dependency resolution is order-dependent, see
