Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-13740:
----------------------------------------

bq. For detecting uses, we should use animal sniffer, which might require 
updating it to handle annotations.

+1, some kind of static analysis we can run over our code, preferably in 
precommit builds. Otherwise this is a great aspirational goal but it will be 
hard to stay on top of. 

When we get this sorted out for ourselves we can add a chapter on how to do it 
to our book for the benefit of our downstreamers too.

> Stop using Hadoop private interfaces

> Now that we are push downstream folks to stay off of our private interfaces, 
> we should provide a good example by doing the same with Hadoop.
> Things to do in this umbrella
> * We need a good way to check; manual inspection is untenable
> * For anything where Hadoop isn't maintaining an isolated API (i.e. they 
> include a non-org.apache.hadoop or jvm class), we should just rip things out
> * For the rest we'll need to determine if we ask for upgrading things to 
> LimitedPrivate(HBase) or Public
