Klaas Bosteels commented on MAPREDUCE-3303:
-------------------------------------------
Not sure I agree with the removal of RecordIO, but that's a different
discussion.. :)
The TypedBytes functionality in Streaming doesn't really have an actual hard
decency on RecordIO, it just supports it. RecordIO records are automatically
converted to typed bytes when they are taken as input so that streaming
programs can easily read sequence files that contain them, but removing the
RecordIO support will not break typed bytes based Streaming altogether.
I guess we should add support for Avro (instead) though if that's going to be
the new standard, but that could be a separate JIRA issue.
