Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-6783:
------------------------------------------

While splitting the config may have made things easier for devs (maybe? is 
there any evidence that having xxx-xxx.xml did?), it would be MUCH easier from 
an ops and end user perspective if this was one big file again. Pushing around 
3 files instead of 1 adds extra coordination and esp confusion for new users.  
[I've lost track of how many times users tried to connect the hdfs client to 
the nn web ui port.]

If we want to retain the semi-autonomy, we could make stanzas for each project.



> Rename core-* configuration files to common-*

> To reflect the name of the project, the {{core-site.xml}} and 
> {{core-default.xml}} configuration files should be renamed to {{common-}} and 
> the references in documentation (including javadoc) should be updated. 
> Compatibility should be maintained, with a warning.
