$ savanna plugins-list
+---------+----------+---------------------------+
| name    | versions | title                     |
+---------+----------+---------------------------+
| vanilla | 1.2.1    | Vanilla Apache Hadoop     |
| hdp     | 1.3.2    | Hortonworks Data Platform |
+---------+----------+---------------------------+

above is output from the /plugins endpoint - 
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/savanna/userdoc/rest_api_v1.0.html#plugins

the question is, should the version be the version of the plugin or the 
version of hadoop the plugin installs?

i ask because it seems like we have version == plugin version for hdp 
and version == hadoop version for vanilla.

the documentation is somewhat vague on the subject, mostly stating 
"version" without qualification. however, the json passed to the service 
references "hadoop_version" and the arguments in the client are called 
"hadoop_version"

fyi, this could be complicated by the idh and spark plugins.

best,


matt
