Michael Miller commented on ACCUMULO-4703:
------------------------------------------

bq.  Would you consider starting with Guava first, doing it on 1.7 and 1.8 
branches as well, making a release and then continuing the effort for other 
dependencies?

I eliminated the use of Beta code in 1.7 branch so the next release should work 
with the latest Guava.  The 1.8 branch is another story though and we are 
opening subsequent tickets to deal with Guava for that branch.

> This is issue is motivated by discussion in ACCUMULO-4701.   For 2.0.0 we 
> should attempt to use the latest version of any direct dependencies.   Not 
> doing so may force user to use older versions of dependencies with bugs and 
> security problems. 
> ACCUMULO-4701 provides an example of this where Accumulo using methods that 
> exist in an older version of Guava but are dropped in a new version prevent a 
> user from using newer Guava.
