   * Cluster behavior has been much improved. The master, rather than the splitting region server host, now rules where the daughter splits are deployed. A simple formula has been added to spread region load evenly.  Splits have been made near-instantaneous and compaction has been reworked so neither block updates for extended periods of time. -- ''Added 2007/08/16''
   * Support for row and filter columns.
   * A simple [wiki:Hbase/HbaseShell shell] for manipulating HBase tables contributed by Edward Yoon. -- ''Added 2007/07/10'''

  Design (and subsequently implement) a structured storage system as
  similar to Google's Bigtable as possible for the Hadoop environment.

   * Gratuitous changes that are essentially "re-inventing the wheel" or are the result of "not invented here".
   * Until the first working version is completed, requests for additional features should be posted at [wiki:Self:Hbase/HbaseFeatureRequests Hbase Feature Requests] to prevent "feature creep" or "one plus" requests that are not necessary in an initial release.
   * Premature optimization. Once there is a working version, the system will be profiled for hot spots.
