Adam Fuchs commented on ACCUMULO-1421:
--------------------------------------
RE location of getConfiguration: how about if we make it package protected in
InputFormatBase for now?
RE compatibility layer: As a general solution I would say that's a good
solution, but since we can (in theory) enumerate all of the versions we want to
be compatible with it's better if we can just make one simple release to rule
them all.
RE 1.5 vs. trunk: Is there another point of incompatibility? If this just fixes
the problem entirely then we definitely want to have it in 1.5.0. If not, then
we haven't sacrificed much by putting it in 1.5. Sean, are you running
compatibility tests with CDH 3 and 4?

> JobContext switches between an abstract class and an interface in hadoop 1
> and 2, causing runtime compatibility problems in the compiled Accumulo
