I am talking about YUNIKORN-490 and its sub jira: moving the API definition
from the core into the SI is a bit more than just removing some unused
messages.
It also includes a major change of protobuf and protoc in YUNIKORN-488 as
we're on a superseded release.

This is the exact reason why we do not want to go to 1.0 now. You do not
want to start a 1.0 release with an already deprecated REST interface or
something you will deprecate immediately. If we get this out of the way in
a release before 1.0 we do not have to carry the baggage around of an
already deprecated REST interface.
We also do not want to rush this development either.

It has an impact. Currently we have abandoned changing log levels for
YuniKorn on the fly as it is not possible.
To get this working the requirement is to initialise the logging in the
core code to start with.
The second step is that we then need to introduce the REST API to allow it
and introduce a core to shim way to communicate the log change.

I have not looked at the Opentracing changes recently but I do think that
needs changes to the interface as well.
Instead of rushing this why not take a little more time to figure this out.
We're not talking about years, or even a year. We're talking about between
the 2 and 3 months at the most.
