Josh Elser commented on HBASE-20582:
------------------------------------
{quote}are you up for summarizing what changed that could be risky?

I can weigh in here that Jackson 2.9 claims to have compatibility (across the
versions we have). JRuby asserts the same (Ruby 2.3.0 compatibility, I think it
was). My big concern is just the "unknown" :)
I'd leave it to [~Apache9] to weigh in if this is desirable for 2.1 or not. I
know we shared the goal of trying to keep minor releases more slim.

> Not all of them directly affects HBase but [~elserj] suggested that it is
> better to be on the updated version to avoid issues during an audit in
> security sensitive organization.
