Dima Spivak commented on HBASE-11885: ------------------------------------- I think for licensing reasons (i.e. having to do with Java) and also to avoid stale Maven versions down the line being baked into the Dockerfile itself, having a user supply their own preferred version is the way to go if we are to include a Dockerfile for users in Apache HBase. I think this also lets someone easily test different combinations of Java and Maven to validate that the code builds.
