Jeff Hammerbacher commented on HIVE-1668:
-----------------------------------------

bq. Are you guys contributing Hue to ASF?

No.

bq. It seems hasty to remove functionality in favor of a replacement if that 
replacement isn't going to be shipped with mainline Hive. 

There's certainly precedent in other projects. For example, indexed HBase was 
moved out to Github for very similar reasons: while it provided a useful 
feature, it did so in a somewhat flaky way.

bq. I have learned to roll with the punches.

That's not a great argument for keeping code that's onerous to maintain in 
trunk.

Just trying to be pragmatic here.
