Josh Elser commented on HBASE-15978:
------------------------------------

bq. Did not check the APILyzer, but we kind of have a similar thing. See the 
test that is new in HBASE-15174. We can extend that to ensure there is no 
non-HBase in the InterfaceAudience.Public methods. We might need to whitelist 
java collections, etc. 

Ah, cool. I didn't come across that one on my own. Having the annotations is 
definitely a perk for ya'll (whereas apilyzer has to rely on regex to define 
what is acceptable). Thanks for the pointer.

>  interface extends Netty, which means our public API is bound to a specific 
> Netty API and release. IIRC we were minimizing our public-facing surface area 
> and asserting ownership over the whole of it so as to control our 
> compatibility. Ie, we've done this with Protobuf as well. Not sure if this 
> has made it back to other branches.
