Hi Masatake,

one thing that I'd be worried about from an admin/operator point of
view is a potential double upgrade for Bigtop 3.1, namely Zookeper
first and then Hadoop (plus other services if needed). In my case, we
would probably keep relying on Debian's zookeeper packages (3.4) since
we don't use Hbase and we have our own version of Kafka packaged, but
others relying on Bigtop's zookeeper packages may need to upgrade them
as well. Nothing major, but I would highlight this thing in the
release notes, so people can plan upgrades accordingly. In my
experience planning a Bigtop upgrade, even a minor version, takes time
and a lot of testing :)

Hope it makes sense!
