Pete Wyckoff commented on HADOOP-3315:
--------------------------------------

bq. Let's hold the bar relatively low and wait until it proves itself to 
graduate it elsewhere.

Since this includes a file format, won't that mean we won't then be able to 
make any changes to the format or if we have to make changes, we will have to 
version it/deal with "legacy" data right away?

> New binary file format
