Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-1170:
------------------------------------
For the createTaskAttemptContext stuff we should add a comment explaining the
purpose of this, to work around incompatible API changes.
For the pom.xml changes, note that the parent pom.xml sets the default version
for Hadoop in Avro to 0.20.205.0, so the change here is only for the mapred
module, not for the other modules that depend on hadoop (tools and trevni).
Perhaps that's intended, so that we end up testing against both versions of
Hadoop. If so, we should add a comment to that effect. If its not intended
then the version should probably be set in the parent pom.xml. That said, we
should not add a dependency on a SNAPSHOT pom, so we'll probably not commit
this until there's a Hadoop release that contains the required changes or we
figure out another way to fix this.
