:) I like color + symbol too

+1, I like the traffic light notion, and the colors and shapes Mike
proposes will be recognized cross culturally and cross language as far as I
know. (No need to bring up a weird counter example, but I would find it
interesting for reasons unrelated to this discussion...)

If we're doing traffic light style (which I think is a good idea) I would
ask that we also have distinct symbols instead of circles for everything.
Green check mark, Yellow caution sign, Red X seem relatively universal?

I believe "NT" is already meant to cover the "NP" case. How can we
rephrase it to better cover the meaning you want?
In my mind "not tested" isn't honest because we have many folks who
have
been doing testing on Hadoop 3.x versions. There is a very broad
spectrum
that is left up to the reader to discern, e.g.
Not Tested: "we haven't done a full round of HBase-grade,
production-readiness testing"
Not Tested: "We don't know if HBase even compiles against that Hadoop
version"
That's fair. (But again Hadoop 3 versions aren't "NT", they're "red
light". this is a direct result of folks doing testing.)
There are even notes below the table that explain *why* those versions
are "red light". I think we have an explanation note for anything
marked X currently.
if "S" and "F" are meant to mean "production ready" why don't we just
make that status "production ready" and pick a symbol for it? (maybe a
check mark since this is no longer a plain text document).
I really like Nick's suggestion about a Traffic Light: Green, Yellow,
Red.
This would let us spend more time explaining the types of situations
that
would cause us to play some "cell" in that box (rather than make more
values
to go in that box).
What do you think about this? I would be happy to take this on.
Yeah, I like this idea because I think it's essentially what we were
trying to get across in "S", "NT", "X" but traffic colors are easier
to scan.
