> See discussion thread on dev@ "[DISCUSS] Branching for HBase 1.5 and Hadoop minimum version update (to 2.7)"
> Consensus
> * This is a needed change due to the practicalities of having Hadoop as a dependency
> * Let's move up the minimum supported version of Hadoop to 2.7.1.
> * Update documentation (support matrix, compatibility discussion) to call this out.
> * Be sure to call out this change in the release notes.
> * Take the opportunity to remind users about our callout "Replace the Hadoop Bundled With HBase!" recommending users upgrade their Hadoop if < 2.7.1.
