Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-6757:
-----------------------------------
I'm not sure what the motivation is. The inclusion of the code violates no
bylaws of either Hive or Apache. For those who don't use Parquet, they probably
never deal with these classes, but for those who do, these are important to
them. I'm not sure what we gain by removing them.
If we think this is important for Hive, I'd be open to consider amending the
current by-laws to apply going forward. In absence of such bylaw, I don't see a
strong argument for the removal.
As to the case of HCat, I'm wondering how many releases have passed before it
lands on the current package structure.
