Namit Jain commented on HIVE-3585:
----------------------------------
The main reason that contrib exists is to add new features/projects which are
being tested, may take some time to
mature, and are reasonably stand-alone, so that they dont need many changes in
existing code. New serdes/fileformats/udfs
are good usecases for them.
I dont see why is testing/development in contrib so difficult or different as
compared to development in any other component.
This is the reason why contrib was added, so new stand-alone components can
bake. We can definitely move it from contrib, once
it is mature/safe.
Why is development in contrib such a bad idea ?
