Just call a vote on a release on the branch-0.20-append branch and we
are done.
Folks are welcome to port it on top of branch-0.20-security too. I
believe that has been done by some hbase folks too.

Hey guys.
I was speaking to some people a couple of nights ago, and we came up
with an idea about it (which I'm sure has been mentioned before so
apologies beforehand).
could we make append a configuration option. either at build or at
run time.
that way we could let alot of the hbase users run off the same
codebase and not have them patch it themselves.
sure.. we will still have the same testing issues, and debates on if
it is stable or properly tested.. we can put big warning messages in
the documentation on when people should be using it.. but at least
they could get a regular build
and run it.
so.. the question to the experts.. can the append patch be made into
a configuration option such that if people don't have it enabled it
won't affect them.
Thanks for listening
