Yes, I fully agree. Changing public APIs is a monster. > If you find other spelling mistakes that are parts of internal APIs, feel > free to file JIRAs and patches to fix! The changes I was thinking about are limited to the junit testing files for the codecs. --> fully internal Specifically this one: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hadoop/common/trunk/src/test/core/org/apache/hadoop/io/compress/TestCodec.java?view=markup Which contains (among others) this method: testSplitableCodecs As I'm actually touching these methods I'll include the changes in the patch I'm currently working on. -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Niels Basjes
