Thanks Aaron for pointing it out. I didn't see any consensus on HDFS-9924 s=
o I think we should bring it here with broader audiences for more discussio=
ns.

I saw several very bad practices here:

1. committer (no need to say who) revert all commits from trunk without mak=
ing consensus with all related contributors/committers.

2. Someone's comments on feature branch are very misleading... If I didn't =
remember wrong, feature development doesn't have to go through feature bran=
ch which is just an optional process. This creative process of feature bran=
ch and branch committer - I believe the intention is trying to accelerate f=
eatures development but not to slow them down.

3. Someone (again, no need to say who) seems to claim himself as RM for tru=
nk. I don't think we need any RM for trunk. Even for RM of 3.0.0-alpha, I t=
hink we need someone else who demonstrates he/she is more responsible, work=
 hardly and carefully and open communication with all community. Only throu=
gh this, the success of Hadoop in age of 3.0 are guranteed.


Thanks,


Junping

Junping,

All of this is being discussed on HDFS-9924. Suggest you follow the convers=
ation there.

Hi Andrew,

     I just noticed you revert 8 commits on trunk last Friday:

HADOOP-13226

HDFS-10430

HDFS-10431

HDFS-10390

HADOOP-13168

HDFS-10390

HADOOP-13168

HDFS-10346

HADOOP-12957

HDFS-10224

   And I didn't see you have any comments on JIRA or email discussion befor=
e you did this. I don't think we are legally allowed to do this even as com=
mitter/PMC member. Can you explain what's your intention to do this?

   BTW, thanks Nicolas to revert all these "illegal" revert operations.


Thanks,


Junping
