David Mollitor commented on HDFS-15790:
---------------------------------------
Thanks [~vinayakumarb]. I don't mind adding this new capability, but it broke
backwards compatibility of a public class. Thanks for taking a look. I hope
this can be considered an add-on and not a replacement.

> Changing from Protobuf 2 to Protobuf 3 broke some stuff in Apache Hive
> project. This was not an awesome thing to do between minor versions in
> regards to backwards compatibility for downstream projects.
> Additionally, these two frameworks are not drop-in replacements, they have
> some differences. Also, Protobuf 2 is not deprecated or anything so let us
> have both protocols available at the same time. In Hadoop 4.x Protobuf 2
> support can be dropped.
