I have talked with a few folks in the community who are interested in
using TFile (HADOOP-3315) in their projects that are currently
dependent on Hadoop 0.20, and it would significantly simplify the
release process as well as their lives if we could back port TFile to
Hadoop 0.20 (instead of putting it on yhadoop 0.20).
To be clear, TFile is a new feature, but it only adds a new file
format - no existing files are changed other than build.xml.
