Allen Wittenauer commented on MAPREDUCE-1542:
---------------------------------------------

Every time someone says "oh you can use a separate config file" I need to start 
thanking them.  It just means that Hadoop is that much more operationally 
complex and helps to make sure that I'll have future employment. :)

> HADOOP-6568 added the configuration {{hadoop.cluster.administrators}} through 
> which admins can configure who the superusers/supergroups for the cluster 
> are. MAPREDUCE itself already has {{mapred.permissions.supergroup}} (which is 
> just a single group). As agreed upon at HADOOP-6568, this should be 
> deprecated in favor of {{hadoop.cluster.administrators}}.
