             Summary: Introduction of the mapreduce maven module breaks 1.6 compatibility
                 Key: ACCUMULO-3402
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-3402
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: client
            Reporter: Josh Elser
            Assignee: Josh Elser
            Priority: Blocker
             Fix For: 1.7.0


The introduction of mapreduce maven module breaks backwards compatibility with 1.6.

Code that previously worked against 1.6 (that used our mapreduce classes) is now broken without a deprecation cycle -- specifically trying to compile Hive against Accumulo 1.7 is broken.

While the classes themselves haven't technically changed, the required dependencies have. In my eyes, this is an incompatible change that violates our current public API rules.
