>             Project: Accumulo
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.7.0
>            Reporter: Sean Busbey
>            Priority: Blocker
>             Fix For: 1.7.0

> We need to ensure that a check for binary backwards compatibility passes when 
> comparing 1.6.z to current master, since it is only a minor version bump.
> {quote}
> That means new classes, interfaces,methods, enum members, etc are all fine. 
> All of the things labelled as HIGH severity in the binary compatibility 
> report are definitely a problem. They're mostly classes and methods that were 
> removed.
> The end goal should be a report like the one Corey got for 1.6.1 -> 1.6.2. We 
> don't need the reciprocal report to be compatible because minor versions need 
> not be forward compatible.
> Problems in the source compatibility report are worth reviewing, but things 
> that only show up there shouldn't be a blocker.
> {quote}
> There are instructions for running the compatibility checker in 
> test/compat/japi-compliance/README
