That is trunk of HBase right?

IOW, a single build of Hive and Pig being able to communicate with different versions of Hadoop? This is fine, but sound more time consuming than what HBase is doing (providing profiles to build against different versions of Hadoop). Regardless of how time consuming either approach is, I guess my fundamental question would be -- do we have any kind of commitment from the downstream guys to have a release compatible with .22? I guess I'm just wondering how these timelines of downstream components will affect usability of any Hadoop release (be it .22 or .23). Any thoughts on that? Thanks, Roman.
