------------------------------------
Summary: Promoting AccessControlList to be public
Key: HADOOP-11254
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11254
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Zhijie Shen
Assignee: Zhijie Shen
The motivation of promoting AccessControlList to be a public API is to
facilitate the users to programmatically parse or construct an ACL string. A
typical use case may be the timeline domain, where we have the client lib to
accept strings complied with ACL string format to define the authorized
readers/writers. It will be more convenient and less buggy if users can compose
this string with AccessControlList.
