   > Just to clarify: in the long term we do still plan to keep the main 
classes such as CompressionCodecFactory inside hadoop-common module? the 
hadoop-compression will just contain extra jars for codecs that are not native?
   
   Except that we plan to move all compression stuffs to `hadoop-compression`  
in the future, otherwise those basic compression related abstractions are still 
needed in `hadoop-common`. It looks weird if we have `CompressionCodecFactory` 
in `hadoop-compression`, but other classes/interfaces such as `Compressor`, 
`Decompressor` are still in `hadoop-common`.
   
   Different than the extra codecs, for these abstractions, I think the ideal 
approach is all or not when considering moving into `hadoop-compression`.
