Andrew Wang commented on HADOOP-14816:
--------------------------------------

I'm -1 on dropping support for Trusty at this time, given that Trusty is still 
supported for another 1.5 years. I think we also shouldn't be dropping support 
for OS versions without a broader discussion on the mailing list.

The Hadoop binary distributions have always been strange in terms of support 
status, in that we only compile them for a single OS, and don't document which 
one. So, I don't mind if we end up shipping Xenial binaries instead of Trusty, 
but I don't want to preclude anyone from building their own Trusty binaries 
either.

Can we use a second Dockerfile to experiment with JDK9 and Xenial in the 
meanwhile?

> It's probably time to update the 3.0 Dockerfile to use Xenial given that 
> Trusty is on life support from Ubuntu.
