Billie Rinaldi commented on ACCUMULO-3402:
------------------------------------------
I'm also leaning towards a revert at this point. It's possible introducing a
mapreduce module would provide the desired benefits after we have a separate
api module (ACCUMULO-2589), so it may be worthwhile to revisit the idea later.

> Fix For: 1.7.0

>
> The introduction of mapreduce maven module breaks backwards compatibility
> with 1.6.
> Code that previously worked against 1.6 (that used our mapreduce classes) is
> now broken without a deprecation cycle -- specifically trying to compile Hive
> against Accumulo 1.7 is broken.
> While the classes themselves haven't technically changed, the required
> dependencies have. In my eyes, this is an incompatible change that violates
> our current public API rules.
