Why Hadoop-1.1.x is not supported by Bigtop-0.5.0?

[Paulo Ricardo Paz Vital <pv...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Hello guys,

I've tried to find the answer of the subject's question on project's 
wiki, JIRA and web page, but I couldn't find any reasonable answer to 
the fact that Hadoop-1.1.x (that is officially a beta release) is not 
supported by Bigtop since release 0.4.0.

I'd like to understand better why 0.5.0 is supporting the alpha release 
of Hadoop, and additionally, if there's a way to package Hadoop-1.1.x 
using 0.5.0.

Regards, Paulo.
