Hairong Kuang commented on HDFS-617:
------------------------------------

The problem is that the new client does not work with the old server...I think 
in the Hadoop world, we already bump up the version number when there is any 
change to the protocol. I do not see why the append branch needs to be 
compatible with 0.20.3. We have already broken the compatibility with HDFS-724 
etc.
