stack commented on HBASE-9895:
------------------------------
+1 for trunk and 0.96. Please add nice release note since it is my guess a few
folks will be looking to see if this facility is present in 0.96 going forward.
> 0.96 Import utility can't import an exported file from 0.94

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: mapreduce
> Affects Versions: 0.96.0
> Reporter: Jeffrey Zhong

> Basically we PBed org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Result so a 0.96 cluster
> cannot import 0.94 exported files. This issue is annoying because a user
> can't import his old archive files after upgrade or archives from others who
> are using 0.94.
> The ideal way is to catch deserialization error and then fall back to 0.94
> format for importing.
