Patrick Wendell commented on SPARK-4114:
----------------------------------------

Dropping target version 1.3 becasue we decided this was too high cost. 
Basically there is no good way to integrate with the hive metastore service 
compatibly across versions.

> Use stable Hive API (if one exists) for communication with Metastore

> If one exists, we should use a stable API for our communication with the Hive 
> metastore. Specifically, we don't want to have to support compiling against 
> multiple versions of the Hive library to support users with different 
> versions of the Hive metastore.
> I think this is what HCatalog API's are intended for, but I don't know enough 
> about Hive and HCatalog to be sure.
