Hi team, I would like to start a discussion regarding the removal of the legacy gateway-adapter module under KNOX-1608.
PR #1263 removes the gateway-adapter module, which has been shipping @Deprecated-since-0.14.0 shims in the org.apache.hadoop.gateway.* package that pure-delegate to their org.apache.knox.gateway.* counterparts. This is a source-compatible but binary-incompatible change for anyone still referencing the old FQCNs in topologies, provider configs, or downstream code. Since 3.0.0 is already a breaking release (JDK 17 baseline), this is the natural window to remove them. Please let me know if there are any objections, questions, or feedback regarding purging this legacy module for 3.0.0, please reply here before we merge. Best regards, Arun
