There are X amount of hours that people can put into Hadoop. If Y amount goes into 0.20-append, then 0.21 is now left with X-Y. X-Y < X. >> I'd rather have the HBase folks put pressure on the Hadoop PMC to get 0.21 >> out the door than create a custom-to-be-thrown-away-in-less-than-a-year >> branch.

Start using the time you'd put into 0.20-append into 0.21 and then we'll all be in a better place.
