I don't mean that Hadoop community needs to be responsible for testing of _all_ downstream components. What I'd like to see is a practice we used in the 2.0.4-alpha with Bigtop 0.6 where passage of the tests in the latter was a, perhaps unofficial, release criteria for the former. I also agree with 2.0.5 versioning, because essentially, future stability of the API - of freezing - is the solid base we all are looking for.
