Hi, the referenced PR Spark-1416 includes the following comment by
@MLnick:
"But looking at the HBase PR you referenced, I don't see the value of
having that live in Spark. And why is it not simply using an OutputFormat
instead of custom config and writing code? (I might be missing something here,
but it seems to add complexity and maintenance burden unnecessarily)"
Patrick: would you mind to tell us whether that comment were going to be
affect this PR? We are going to be providing a significant chunk of HBase
functionality and would like to know whether to build off of this PR or not.
Thanks.
