   > Are we sure we want to be dictating the version of Hive that is used by 
either Hive users or Flink users? Would it be impossible to run iceberg as it 
exists currently with Hive 3, or would it just utilize potentially deprecated 
APIs?
   
   @marton-bod has other tasks currently so I try to answer the questions to 
move forward this process in the meantime.
   
   Our internal tests show that the current HiveCatalog/MR implementation does 
not work with Hive3. That is why the changes in the PR are requested. These are 
backward compatible changes so in my opinion this is more about adding the 
possibility to run Iceberg-Hive integration / tests with Hive 3 too, and 
very-very importantly keeping the Hive 2 capabilities / tests intact.
   
   > I think that this is a great start, but I can't help but wonder if this 
should be discussed on the dev (or even user) mailing list before moving 
forward.
   
   @marton-bod already started that conversation but it was suggested to create 
a PR so it is easier to understand the required changes. See: 
https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r72e8e7f6d4bdf30e5a460b14ad4a8b0892c15d9426205288c312df16%40%3Cdev.iceberg.apache.org%3E
   Feel free to participate in the conversation in a way that is most 
convenient for you.
   
   Thanks for taking the time to check the PR!
