Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-1958:
-----------------------------------
bq. However, it is not as convincing as suggested to change a feature affecting
user behavior simply because someone has reported on the mailing list.
Fair enough. I'll try to reproduce the reasoning from the mailing list in the
future.
bq. Todd, do you agree that this is a "newbie" issue
Yes. But I already addressed it so no need to retroactively tag it as such (IMO
the point of the newbie label is just to help new contributors find open JIRAs
that might be easy to start with).
