Elliott Clark commented on HBASE-13339:
---------------------------------------

bq.It's the difference between letting downstream users decide if the feature 
is worth the pain of upgrading or making part of the decision for them.
If we tell users that we support this choice then we need to support all the 
consequences of that choice.

bq.Granted, folks are supposed to replace the Hadoop related client jars from 
our lib directory to be those from their Hadoop distribution
I've never seen this work well ( in apache land ) because of transitive 
dependencies.

> Update default Hadoop version to 2.6.0

> Current default Hadoop version is getting a little long in the tooth. We 
> should update to the latest version. The latest version is backwards 
> compatible with 2.5.1's dfs and mr so this should be painless.
