OK, that's cool. I really was asking, you would be within the license rights. I try to keep all my libraries maintained, but sometimes don't have cause to work on some things for a while and things escape my notice.

Though as a footnote, there is no dependency on Clojure Hadoop, they work together without a dependency. I'd take a pull request if the vars that are being moved from defvar- to def have ^{:private true} added to their metadata.

I added links to the Clojure Hadoop and HBase libraries. Many people may not need to be compatible with 1.3, my forks have been moved to the side.
