I agree with Mark in that I don't see how supporting scala 2.10 for spark 2.0 implies supporting it for all of spark 2.x
Regarding Koert's comment on akka, I thought all akka dependencies have been removed from spark after SPARK-7997 and the recent removal of external/akka On Wed, Mar 30, 2016 at 9:36 AM, Mark Hamstra <m...@clearstorydata.com> wrote: > Dropping Scala 2.10 support has to happen at some point, so I'm not > fundamentally opposed to the idea; but I've got questions about how we go > about making the change and what degree of negative consequences we are > willing to accept.
