Nicholas, given that the two voting threads are far apart in time, lets keep this voting thread alive. So please consider withdrawing -1 on the basis of this technical reason. > > * The branch is not ready. The code misuses DataTransferProtocol. > Documentation of the new conf properties are missing.

I think waiting for all the things complete in a feature branch might slowdown feature development. I think some of these issues can be addressed in trunk. We could also consider waiting for all the issues that you have brought up to be addressed before merging it to the branch-2. Please do post a comment on HDFS-347 on which of the issues should be addressed before merging to branch-2. > Tsz-Wo > > > > ________________________________ > From: Colin McCabe <cmcc...@alumni.cmu.edu> > To: hdfs-dev@hadoop.apache.org > Sent: Tuesday, April 2, 2013 7:32 AM > Subject: VOTE: HDFS-347 merge > > Hi all, > > I think it's time to merge the HDFS-347 branch back to trunk.
