What we have for actually publishing to maven makes things much better. I think we should at least give it one real release.

The way we will do real releases now that stack did all of the maven goodness (with hadoop version in the hbase version string), is very different from what was there just a couple of weeks ago.  The downstream projects have reported that it works well for them and testing it does produce a much easier story than previously (especially if it's hbase-client only).

> This is a brainstorming JIRA. Working with HBase dependency at this point seems to be rather painful from what I hear from other folks. We could do the hive model with unified shim, built in such manner that it can work with either version, where at build time dependencies for all 2-3 versions are pulled and the appropriate one is used for tests, and when running HBase you have to point at Hadoop directory to get the dependencies. I am not very proficient at maven so not quite certain of the best solution yet.
