Hi All, Have been discussing with a couple of folks around Hive 4.0 GA release and we classified only: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-26654 as the blocker for now & that typically is a parent ticket for failures around TPCDS queries, rest all stays in 'best effort' state. I will be moving out all other tickets or maybe reduce their priority from blocker in a day or two.
We would definitely require some volunteers for that, so in case anyone has some experience around that part of code and can spare some cycles, do volunteer!!! Rest, I along with a couple of folks will try to review/contribute to the code which we have some idea to get that going as fast as possible. Let me know if anyone is aware of any other ticket which you consider as a blocker apart from the above mentioned for the 4.x GA release. -Ayush
