Devaraj Das commented on HADOOP-7557:
-------------------------------------
bq. Why not just get rid of Writable and RpcEngine and hardwire protobuf from
the top down? That would be easier to support and would be easier for folks to
implement in other languages. Why have an implementation that pretends to be
serialization independent? What advantages does that provide?
+1 on this. Let's phase out writable over time. It's good in theory to have a
pluggable RPC engine but in practice it seems unlikely we'd have yet another
impl.
