stack commented on HBASE-12259:
-------------------------------

bq. Since Hydrabase is based upon 0.89 most of the code is not directly 
applicable. So lots of work will probably need to be done in a feature branch 
before a merge vote.

Agree. Feature branch would be way to go.

bq. Is this something that's wanted?

Sounds good. Lets take a look at what is involved (From what I know of 
hydrabase, its a X-DC WAN story.. An in-DC, in-cluster deploy is probably what 
we'd be interested in doing first).

bq. Is there anything clean up that needs to be done before the log 
implementation is able to be replaced like this?

See Sean's comment above.  He is doing nice WAL Interface refactor/cleanup. 
Does current hydrabase need more than current WAL API or it just works using 
current API w/ the magic going on behind WAL append, sync, close, roll, calls?

bq. What's our story with upgrading to this? Are we ok with requiring down time 
?

If downtime, would imply a 2.0 (or 3.0) feature (IMO).
