Hi! Heads up that a discussion has started in Apache Yetus about dropping the Audience Annotations and associated javadoc tooling due to lack of community support[1]. The current cutting issue AFAICT is that things there haven't been updated for the changes in how doclets are handled in JDK9+.
We still center all of our API scoping on this library. In general it has been solid and required relatively little investment on our part. Personally, I think this has worked really well for us so far and we ought to try to keep the shared resource going. Unfortunately, I don't currently have the cycles to personally step up in the Yetus project. What do folks think? Anyone able to help out in Yetus? Should we start moving to maintain this tooling internal to HBase? [1]: https://s.apache.org/ybdl6 "[DISCUSS] Drop JDK8; audience-annotations" from [email protected]
