Just to state what seems to be in progress -- looks like we are agreed
we should move to the new Hadoop APIs. Some code is already using it;
most of the part that isn't is the recommender which was due to some
strange bugs deep in Hadoop in prior versions. It's time to try it
again. I'm going to work on porting everything forward now.
The other argument against this was that Amazon EMR runs 0.18.3. I
think Jeff already established that what we're doing has already
broken compatibility with 0.18.x. We can point those users to release
0.3 and say they can try to back-port that code to 0.18.x
compatibility. But 0.4 onwards is for 0.20.x+ and you can run your own
cluster using AWS and hopefully EMR updates soon.
