Eli Collins commented on HDFS-2802:
-----------------------------------
Hey guys,
Are you hoping to try to get this into branch-2 for 2.0.4 beta? The target
version is currently v3. Since this is an invasive change and requires a
metadata upgrade it's IMO something that would be hard to put in post v2 GA,
and since we're only planning one v2 beta it seems like we'd need to target
that release if we want this in branch-2.
Thanks,
Eli
