Matt Corgan commented on HBASE-8089:
------------------------------------
Nick - what other dependencies does your whole new type library have on HBase
besides ByteRange? It would be grand if it were a standalone jar that could be
used by other projects without importing hbase-specific libs (which then drag
in other dependencies). All of this functionality is really cool and is more
likely to gain adoption if it's as easy as possible to drop in existing
projects.

> This proposal outlines an improvement to HBase that provides for a set of
> types, above and beyond the existing "byte-bucket" strategy. This is intended
> to reduce user-level duplication of effort, provide better support for
> 3rd-party integration, and provide an overall improved experience for
> developers using HBase.
