Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-5112:
-------------------------------------

There are discussions in the hadoop mailing lists about having the hadoop 2 GA 
in few weeks. So I think it is worthwhile that we aim to have 0.12 to be 
compatible with the hadoop 2 line as well.

[~appodictic] I don't think your -1 is reasonable for the following reasons- 
- I don't consider it feasible to stop upgrading jars in hive because the old 
version of jar was used by some udf/serde/inputformat. (But I do think that in 
long term we need to explore ways of isolating the hive jars/classes vs user 
jars/classes) 
- In the example you cited, as Sushanth mentioned, you don't need to make any 
code changes to use protobuf 2.5. I suspect most users who are using protobuf 
with dynamic schema would not choose to work with generated code. So the number 
of users this is likely to affect is small.
- The upgrade is inevitable. With it being in trunk, it is in its way into the 
0.13 release.

I request you to please reconsider your -1.

> Hadoop and Hbase have both upgraded protobuf. We should as well.
