Andrew T. Fiore commented on HIVE-2561:
---------------------------------------

True, although that particular library and its dependency are Apache 
2.0-licensed, just like Hive.

It seems like some kind of lookup function in an external data file would be a 
good example.  It's hard to think of anything that would be both generally 
useful to Hive users and public-domain, though.  Is there something in here 
maybe?  http://aws.amazon.com/datasets

> Often times UDFs will have dependencies to external JARs/FILEs.  It makes 
> sense for these to be encoded by the UDF (rather than having the caller 
> remember the set of files that need to be ADDed).  Let's add an annotation to 
> UDFs which will cause these resources to be auto-added.
