Sean Busbey commented on HADOOP-11656:
--------------------------------------

Sure thing! I'm rebasing HADOOP-11804 onto current trunk now. I believe we can 
get that in within the alpha period.

[~sjlee0], any time for HADOOP-13070 this month?

> Currently, Hadoop exposes downstream clients to a variety of third party 
> libraries. As our code base grows and matures we increase the set of 
> libraries we rely on. At the same time, as our user base grows we increase 
> the likelihood that some downstream project will run into a conflict while 
> attempting to use a different version of some library we depend on. This has 
> already happened with i.e. Guava several times for HBase, Accumulo, and Spark 
> (and I'm sure others).
> While YARN-286 and MAPREDUCE-1700 provided an initial effort, they default to 
> off and they don't do anything to help dependency conflicts on the driver 
> side or for folks talking to HDFS directly. This should serve as an umbrella 
> for changes needed to do things thoroughly on the next major version.
> We should ensure that downstream clients
> 1) can depend on a client artifact for each of HDFS, YARN, and MapReduce that 
> doesn't pull in any third party dependencies
> 2) only see our public API classes (or as close to this as feasible) when 
> executing user provided code, whether client side in a launcher/driver or on 
> the cluster in a container or within MR.
> This provides us with a double benefit: users get less grief when they want 
> to run substantially ahead or behind the versions we need and the project is 
> freer to change our own dependency versions because they'll no longer be in 
> our compatibility promises.
> Project specific task jiras to follow after I get some justifying use cases 
> written in the comments.
