Reducer should not be abstract in order to serve as substitute for 
IdentityReducer

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-724
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-724
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.20.1
            Reporter: Sean Owen
            Priority: Minor


The old IdentityReducer class has been deprecated since the new Reducer class's 
default behavior is the very same. The @deprecated tag indicates Reducer is a 
substitute. However it is an abstract class and cannot be instantiated, which 
causes problems. I imagine it is just a matter of removing the 'abstract' 
keyword.
