Doug Cutting commented on MAPREDUCE-181:
----------------------------------------

> Today, we put version per file.

I was suggesting that we could put the version for all files in a root-file 
like job.xml, to avoid adding a file just for the version.  I personally would 
prefer that, and, if I were implementing it, would do it that way, but I am not 
implementing this and would not block this patch over that decision.


> Secure job submission

> Currently the jobclient accesses the {{mapred.system.dir}} to add job 
> details. Hence the {{mapred.system.dir}} has the permissions of 
> {{rwx-wx-wx}}. This could be a security loophole where the job files might 
> get overwritten/tampered after the job submission.
