Jakob Homan commented on HCATALOG-182:
--------------------------------------
Sigh... on one hand, the naming of a package that's not top-level (ie
org.apache) is relatively minor, though I do think this will lead to questions,
if not confusion, later on. The bigger issue is the assumption that are
restrictions on what can be done to code that's donated to ASF, if it had some
life beforhand (ie, we'll submit this patch if you agree not change these
classes or change it in a backward-incompabible way). That's not what's
happening here, but it would be very bad to be seen as precedent in the future.
(developing code on github with the org.apache package and ASF headers that's
never actually been ASF code is another question...)
