how are we going with the 0.22 release.
Progress has been blocked because HADOOP-6685 is still blocked. I feel that HADOOP-6685 is critical for Hadoop and don't see much point in working on a 0.22 release without it. In particular, HADOOP-6685 removes the need for third party serialization libraries that work around the current limitations of the MapReduce framework, but splinter the user community.
If someone else wants to take over as release manager for 0.22 while we find a solution to make forward progress on HADOOP-6685, that would be fine.
