Alan Gates commented on HCATALOG-182:
-------------------------------------
bq. Backwards compatible to what? It's not in the source code yet, so there's
no release to be compatible with...
It's been in github for 6 months now and has users. It hasn't been part of
HCat code, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have users to take into account.
