Dustin Cote commented on MAPREDUCE-6491: ---------------------------------------- [~aw], I've opened up MAPREDUCE-6504 to basically be the same as this JIRA except the default value of mapreduce.application.appendable.env.variables will not include HADOOP_CLASSPATH and made it "a part of" this JIRA. I'll upload the version modified for trunk there next. I think as I understood it, MAPREDUCE-6458 is needed before we should drop HADOOP_CLASSPATH from the default, so I noted that on MAPREDUCE-6504 as well. I'm happy to take over MAPREDUCE-6458 and will assign to myself. Probably I won't get to it this week, but I should be able to give it a go over the next couple of weeks. [~jlowe] and [~aw], did I miss anything left for this JIRA? I think all that's left is to send in the patch (assuming there's no other hiccups).
