--------------------------------------

> I think it makes sense to have Reporter provide the task's progress to the

It's certainly an improvement, but does it warrant an incompatible change to an 
interface marked as stable? There may be an argument that it does, but I would 
have expected to see some discussion about this before it was committed. Why 
not only change the new API and tell users that they need to use that one if 
they want to use this feature?

> There is no way to get the task's current progress in the new MapReduce API. 
> It would be nice to make it available so that the task (map/reduce) can use 
> it.
