Github user StephanEwen commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/1386#issuecomment-161608168 As far as I can see from these changes, introducing a `TaskInfo` will completely subsume this change here and change every line again. You are right, usually different issues should go into different pull requests. But here, one change is a superset of the other change, so that the "task attempt" change without the "task info" change becomes obsolete. I am not strictly against merging this, just thinking that it makes sense to put the TaskInfo into this change as well...
