Lets fail this RC because it has a broken unit test (Fixed subsequently in HBASE-19666). As per Andrew, unit tests should be passing by beta-time.
JMS damaged his cluster starting w/ an ill-configured SNAPPY. I opened HBASE-19701 for beta-2 to look into better messaging around his failure state -- so JMS's of the world are less baffled next time through --- and making it so cluster just recovers once cluster has been properly configured. Thanks all who gave this RC a run. I'll be back w/ a new one in next couple of hours. Shout if there is something you'd like to get in... within reason of course [1]. St.Ack 1. In case it not plain, we are trying to stabilize branch-2. Care needs to be exercised backporting. Bug fixes only please. If in doubt, ping me, the RM, please. Thanks.
