Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-13339:
-------------------------------------

Personally, I view the pom as a compile-time API check. However, I get 
Elliott's concern on stability for folks who don't listen when we say that they 
need to replace the jars with their Hadoop versions. As a part of that, I think 
we should make sure we push for HDFS-7005 in the Hadoop 2.5.z line regardless 
of what we do here.

I don't want to move any versions into "unsupported" in 1.y that were supported 
at the start of 1.0, so I'd like to make sure we verify that things still work 
on e.g. Hadoop 2.4 and 2.5. I think having Jenkins builds with the appropriate 
hadoop.profile / hadoop-two.version settings is enough to fulfill this for me.

Does anyone have a good idea about how we can test what happens when a user of 
a Hadoop 2.5 cluster upgrades to HBase 1.1 and doesn't replace the Hadoop 2.6 
jars we include? (Or similarly a 2.4 cluster with either the 2.5 jars we're 
including now or the 2.6 ones?) Since they're supposed to be wire compatible, I 
think it should be fine but a test would be better.

I'll check dependency changes, presuming nothing explodes (like a guava 
version) then I'd be +0.

-1 on unsupporting 1.1 versions of Hadoop.

[~larsh], are you referring to labeling Hadoop 1.1.z versions as unsupported? 
If so, they've always been unsupported on HBase 1.0+ (at least [according to 
the ref guide|http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#hadoop]).

> Current default Hadoop version is getting a little long in the tooth. We 
> should update to the latest version. The latest version is backwards 
> compatible with 2.5.1's dfs and mr so this should be painless.
