Karthik Kambatla commented on HADOOP-9517:
------------------------------------------
Thanks Steve. Will include all those items in the next version of the patch:
# Source code compatibility - when you say the patch will apply (patch -p0), I
suppose you are talking about the directory structure of the code and not that
the patch will apply cleanly. From a contributor's perspective, this limits any
directory changes include any code refactoring - e.g. move an inner class to a
separate class. In that case, do we guarantee compatibility within a minor
release or a major release.
# Configuration: We already have the section - I ll add a note on the default
values.
# Will add user-level file formats, web UI
# Will capture OS, JVM and Hardware under a new section Requirements.
> Define Hadoop Compatibility
