Yeah, we're not going to be able to change the REST APIs without updating the version number and leaving the old version around for a while.  We should make sure that the fix makes future WS version revs easy (or at least easier than this one).

This means YARN-7505 can have /ws/v2/* running in parallel of /ws/v1/* for 3.1 
or 3.0.1 release, and deprecate /ws/v1/*.  In version 4, we drop /ws/v1/*, 
right?
I think this plan can work.

Subject: Re: Changing the JSON Serializer

3.0.0 RCs are in progress already. Bit late to make a breaking change.

the REST APIs are versioned for a reason. So long as we're outputting these 
changes on a new version, this change should be fine on whatever branch we 
like. When we open up for changes to go in the next major release we can drop 
the v1 APIs.

+1 on changing the JSON serializer.  Hadoop was an early adopter for Jersey, 
but proper JSON deserializer for Jackson didn’t appear until mid 2016 after 
Jackson 2.5 release.  Hence, some early versions of Hadoop REST API were not 
JSON compliant.  Hadoop kind of comply to schematic versioning, therefore, it 
will be best to make this change in 3.0 release.  This will reduce some baggage 
carried forward from Hadoop 2.x.
I think community will respond positively toward this change.  Thank you for 
bringing this up.

     The REST APIs are covered under the compatibility guidelines[1]. Presuming
     these are under a new API version number, it's not clear to me from the
     existing guidelines if adding one is okay in a maintenance release. It
     sounds surprising to me.
