Nigel,

When you have time, could you release 0.18.4 that contains some of the
patches that make our clusters 'stable'?

No, I didn't mark 0.19.1 stable. I left 0.18.3 as our most stable
release.

My company skipped deploying 0.19.x so I have no experience with that
branch. Others?

Is it just the patches that have already been applied to the 18
branch? Or are there more?

Owen,
Former. Just the patches that have already been applied to 0.18 branch.
I especially want HADOOP-5465 in for the 'stable' release.
(This patch is also missing in 0.19.1)

Hey Koji,

FYI, HADOOP-5465 is one of the patches we're bundling in the Cloudera distro
for Hadoop, based on 0.18.3: http://cloudera.com/hadoop

Lacking an 0.18.4 release, you might want to take a look.

Hey Nigel,

HDFS is real nice in 0.19.1; we plan to stay on that version for a few
more months (until 0.20.1 comes out).

Can't say anything about the mapred side, we don't use it.
