+1, It is needed only for upgrading from Hive 1.x/2.x to 3.x and not relevant for 4.x. We can retain it in 3.x release line only.

Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification ] Big +1 from me. As we shift our focus from ACID to Iceberg I do not think it is relevant anymore. Also as Butao highlighted it has a CVE as well. Let's remove it, and if eventually something is needed (highly doubt) then we can revisit the decision at that time. Due to the extensive history of Hive and the numerous legacy components that haven't been touched since 1972, it is crucial for us all to be more decisive in determining what to keep and maintain. The size of the codebase makes it extremely challenging, time-consuming, and potentially frustrating for OSS contributors to thoroughly review all 67 (just a number :) ) aspects of the Hive. -Attila On Wed, Jan 10, 2024 at 2:55 AM Butao Zhang <butaozha...@163.com> wrote: > +1.
