Arun C Murthy commented on MAPREDUCE-2454:
------------------------------------------
Alejandro - you, or Asokan, haven't given a single reason *why* the change is
required... I've asked for this multiple times. All I've heard is you disagree
with my opinion, particularly after I've given you ideas to accomplish some
fairly abstract goals in the future within the context of existing
functionality. With due respect, it seems like we are falling into the trap of
ignoring opinions from people who have spent a lot of time & effort maintaing
the codebase without motivating changes sufficiently, especially when people
have little context in the codebase they are suggesting major modifications in.
IAC, let's continue this discussion on MAPREDUCE-4808.
