----------------------------------------
+1
I think we should also create a wiki doc for it to document usage of this api.
In case an overall page for this already exists somewhere, we need to update
it with changes.
> HCatReader/Writer should hide Hadoop and Hive classes

> HCat's HCatReader and HCatWriter interfaces expose Hadoop classes
> Configuration and InputSplit, as well as HCatInputSplit. This exposes users
> to changes over Hadoop or HCatalog versions. It also makes it harder to some
> day move this interface to use WebHCat, which we'd like to do. The eventual
> goal is for this interface to not require any other jars (no Hadoop, Hive,
> etc.) As a first step to this the references to Hadoop and HCat classes in
> the interface should be hidden.
