Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-4844:
-----------------------------------
[~jdere] Since this patch is fairly big and progressing over time, I'm
wondering if it makes sense to create a few sub tasks and attach smaller patch
for each. Especially, you have changes for precision/scale that overlaps with
HIVE-3976, and having a stable patch for the common changes makes it easy to
create patches on the top of it. What do you think?
