             Summary: Mark public features that require HFilev3 Unstable in 0.98, warn in upgrade section
                 Key: HBASE-12914
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12914
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: API, documentation
    Affects Versions: 0.98.9, 0.98.8, 0.98.7, 0.98.6
            Reporter: Sean Busbey
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 1.0.0, 0.98.10


There are several features in 0.98 that require enabling HFilev3 support. Some of those features include new extendable components that are marked IA.Public.

Current practice has been to treat these features as experimental. This has included pushing non-compatible changes to branch-1 as the API got worked out through use in 0.98.

* Update all of the IA.Public classes involved to make sure they are IS.Unstable in 0.98.
* Update the ref guide section on upgrading from 0.98 -> 1.0 to make folks aware of these changes.
