stack updated HADOOP-2370:
--------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed
        Status: Resolved  (was: Patch Available)

I tried it.  If you specify -1 for MAX_VERSIONS, after creation, describing 
table shows Integer.MAX_VALUE.  Committed.  Resolving.  Thanks for the patch 
Edward.

> For some applications, you'll want to be able to create column families that 
> never eliminate their old version, essentially keeping a permanent record. We 
> should support this option when creating a table, or if it already exists, it 
> should be documented.
