There are other tools having two versions - o.a.h.h.mapreduce and o.a.h.h.mapred It seems to me the question is "should hbase support old MR APIs ?' Given that hadoop 3.0 doesn't mark old MR APIs deprecated, we should keep them in hbase? Or we can deprecate them in hbase-2+ in order to remove them in the future?
