Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-15631:
----------------------------------------

bq. ServerName.java seems to have brought HostAndPort back.

ServerName copied verbatim from branch-2 to be compatible. This is not my 
doing. Should we patch ServerName everywhere? We could on a separate JIRA. 

bq.Changes in ProtobufUtil.java seem unnecessary

I thought I removed these. Let me check. There is a new RSGroupsProtobufUtil 
that should contain all new changes. 

bq. The HMaster changes look "interesting". Looks like there could be NPE 
condition with regionState in the reshuffled if-statement (the original seems 
more correct). And I also do not follow the unconditional call to 
randomAssignment there. Are those changes needed at all?

These changes come from the original branch-1 backport patch. I'm not sure. We 
can try changing this code to look more correct and see if something expected 
by RSGroups breaks. Thanks for having a look. This is great feedback.
