Well, slight correction: only one thing in the code that has been
replaced. There are a two patches waiting to get reviewed and applied that fix
the rest of the shipping shell code: HADOOP-10788 and HADOOP-11346. HDFS-7460
is waiting on HADOOP-10788 since I’m consolidating the tomcat driver code, but
it will be effectively a clone of HADOOP-10788’s code.
I haven’t looked at all at things like test-patch or other stuff in
dev-support, which I’m sure are all in an… uhh… “interesting” state.
