-------------------------------------
Hey Alejandro. Yep, we do use jdiff in order to detect incompatible changes
between releases. Tom is one of the experts there.
> To use maven for hadoop common builds

> Key: HADOOP-6671
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6671
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 0.22.0
> Reporter: Giridharan Kesavan
> Attachments: HADOOP-6671.patch, HADOOP-6671b.patch,
> HADOOP-6671c.patch, HADOOP-6671d.patch, build.png,
> hadoop-commons-maven.patch, mvn-layout.sh, mvn-layout.sh, mvn-layout2.sh

>
> We are now able to publish hadoop artifacts to the maven repo successfully [
> Hadoop-6382]
> Drawbacks with the current approach:
> * Use ivy for dependency management with ivy.xml
> * Use maven-ant-task for artifact publishing to the maven repository
> * pom files are not generated dynamically
> To address this I propose we use maven to build hadoop-common, which would
> help us to manage dependencies, publish artifacts and have one single xml
> file(POM) for dependency management and artifact publishing.
> I would like to have a branch created to work on mavenizing hadoop common.
