I believe "NT" is already meant to cover the "NP" case. How can we

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.
Just to be sure, you're saying H3 is red-light still or was red-light
prior to the new Apache releases that have just gone out also mentioned
in this thread (and are actually yellow-light now)?
If it's still red-light, do you have issues handy to point me at because
I'm not familiar with what the current problems are (and probably should
be! :P). HBASE-20540 was the last I knew tracking such issues.
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.
Ok! Sounds like we have some quorum here in this change. I'll open a
Jira issue.
