Description

org.apache.hcatalog.mapreduce.ProgressReporter currently implements org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Reporter. It should also extend org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.StatusReporter so it works with code expecting either an old or new API reporter.

The use case is using a wrapper so a serde works with a new-API input format.
