Re: Inquiry about Stable Release Timeline for Hive-Serde 4.X

[Denys Kuzmenko]

Hi Ravi,

ATM we have 3 items to resolve before the release [1]. 
1. HIVE-27924 will be merged in a couple of days;
2. HIVE-27775 is under review; 
3. HIVE-27858 is under investigation, however, we might exclude it from 4.0 
release;

In parallel, we are running TPC-DS benchmarks. 

Optimistically, we'll release 4.0 sometime next month.

Best,
Denys

Re: Inquiry about Stable Release Timeline for Hive-Serde 4.X

[Mergu Ravi]

Hi Hive Team,

I'm writing to follow up on the GA release for Hive Serde 4.x, which was
mentioned in an email sent on September 21st, 2023. The email stated that
the release will take a minimum of 3 months.

I understand that unforeseen circumstances can sometimes impact release
timelines. I'm simply writing to see if you could share any updates on the
current estimated release date or if there are any additional details you
can provide about the release plan.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Re: "\n" in HiveConf

[Stamatis Zampetakis]

Hello,

Indeed they have an impact on the readability and maintenance of the
class so I would be in favor of dropping them.
Checking the calls to HiveConf.ConfVars#getDescription [1] it seems
that line breaks are somewhat relevant for generating the
hive-default.xml.template and SHOW CONF command but definitely not a
reason for keeping them. In fact, I get the impression that by
removing the line breaks we could also remove the respective
normalization code.

Best,
Stamatis

Community Over Code Asia 2024 Travel Assistance Applications now open!

[Gavin McDonald]

Hello to all users, contributors and Committers!

The Travel Assistance Committee (TAC) are pleased to announce that
travel assistance applications for Community over Code Asia 2024 are now
open!

We will be supporting Community over Code Asia, Hangzhou, China
July 26th - 28th, 2024.

TAC exists to help those that would like to attend Community over Code
events, but are unable to do so for financial reasons. For more info
on this year's applications and qualifying criteria, please visit the
TAC website at < https://tac.apache.org/ >. Applications are already
open on https://tac-apply.apache.org/, so don't delay!

The Apache Travel Assistance Committee will only be accepting
applications from those people that are able to attend the full event.

Important: Applications close on Friday, May 10th, 2024.

Applicants have until the the closing date above to submit their
applications (which should contain as much supporting material as
required to efficiently and accurately process their request), this
will enable TAC to announce successful applications shortly
afterwards.

As usual, TAC expects to deal with a range of applications from a
diverse range of backgrounds; therefore, we encourage (as always)
anyone thinking about sending in an application to do so ASAP.

For those that will need a Visa to enter the Country - we advise you to
apply
now so that you have enough time in case of interview delays. So do not
wait until you know if you have been accepted or not.

We look forward to greeting many of you in Hangzhou, China in July, 2024!

Kind Regards,

Gavin

(On behalf of the Travel Assistance Committee)
