+
+** Sub-task

+    * [MRUNIT-146] - Change repository location in source code
+    * [MRUNIT-172] - Branch trunk should use hadoop 2
+    * [MRUNIT-174] - Remove portions of MRUNIT-161 which don't compile on trunk-hadoop1
+    * [MRUNIT-176] - Branch trunk-hadoop1 should use hadoop 1
+
+** Bug
+    * [MRUNIT-105] - testJavaSerialization methods fail in Java 7 because they do not set a group comparator
+    * [MRUNIT-114] - should support calling configure on sorting and grouping comparators if applicable
+    * [MRUNIT-115] - set JobConf specific to the inputformat reading the results of the outputformat/copying when not using a real outputformat
+    * [MRUNIT-116] - Setting of configuration on Mappers/Reducers in MapDriver and ReduceDriver is inconsistent
+    * [MRUNIT-124] - DistributedCache should move files from getCacheFiles to getLocalCacheFiles
+    * [MRUNIT-126] - Counter tests are ignored if test is executed using run() rather than runTest()
+    * [MRUNIT-127] - Key grouping with GroupingComparators is not consistent with MapReduce behaviour
+    * [MRUNIT-130] - Download page does not point to KEYS; no hashes in download area; must not advertise snapshot builds
+    * [MRUNIT-131] - Comparators registered using WritableComparator.define are not used during tests
+    * [MRUNIT-132] - Spelling mistakes in TestReducerInputValueReuse
+    * [MRUNIT-157] - allow null keys and values as output, expected output
+    * [MRUNIT-159] - MRUnit not compiling with hadoop 0.23.3
+    * [MRUNIT-161] - some distributed cache apis not working - JobContext getCacheArchives()
+    * [MRUNIT-163] - getTaskAttemptID is missing from context
+    * [MRUNIT-165] - MapReduceDriver calls Mapper#cleanup for each input instead of once
+    * [MRUNIT-167] - context passed to an OuputFormatter is ignored by the framework
+    * [MRUNIT-178] - Remove portions of MRUNIT-167 on trunk-hadoop1 which do not compile

+
+** Dependency upgrade
+    * [MRUNIT-112] - upgrade hadoop 1 dependency to hadoop-core 1.0.3

+
+** Improvement
+    * [MRUNIT-95] - use Serialization framework to change all set/add input/output methods to serialize, deserialize to do defensive copying
+    * [MRUNIT-100] - Maven doesn't generate md5/sha1 files automatically

+    * [MRUNIT-133] - MapInput stuff should be moved from TestDriver to MapDriver.
+    * [MRUNIT-136] - PipelineMapReduceDriver needs withAll/addAll methods
+    * [MRUNIT-137] - Remove duplicated set/add/withOutput methods
+    * [MRUNIT-138] - Multiple calls to withInput should be supported
+    * [MRUNIT-142] - withKeyGroupingComparator/withKeyOrderComparator should be in MapReduceDriverBase
+    * [MRUNIT-158] - withOutput doesn't generate useful information with MapWritable on error
+    * [MRUNIT-168] - .gitignore does not exist
+    * [MRUNIT-169] - rat exclude does not list .gitignore
