I think this deals more with our messed up version numbering then anything. Hadoop-1.0 is not a release that is derived from Hadoop 0.21 or 0.22, it comes from the 0.20 line. Hadoop-2.0 is what comes from v0.21 and 0.22. So Hadoop-2 is going to have this, but Hadoop-1 will not.

However, I can't find this interface in the latest stable version of Hadoop v1.0. Is the interface replaced by something else or abandoned completely? If it's abandoned, could anyone tell me why? Thanks, Da
