Hi Ayush and all people working on the JDK upgrade,

Thanks for sharing the timeline and detailing the current progress. I'm
more than happy to hear the good news and look forward to seeing Hive
running on Java 17!

Mid-May is not so far away. I don't have a firm preference about how to
package 4.1. If anyone is interested, let's discuss it in the thread for
the Hive 4.1.x release.

Finally, let me express my gratitude to everyone working on the challenging
upgrade project. It will definitely be one of the most outstanding
achievements!

Sincerely,
Okumin

>>>>>> 1. Core Code Adjustments:
>>>>>>

>>>>>>    - Reflection and Modules: Adjustments related to how Hive

>>>>>>
>>>>>> 2. Dependency Management:
>>>>>>
>>>>>>    - Version Upgrades: Several third-party dependencies have been

>>>>>> DataNucleus[2] that alters the handling of primary key column names by

>>>>>> temporary patched module.
>>>>>>
>>>>>>  - Dependency Cleanup: Unused or outdated dependencies were removed,
>>>>>> reducing potential conflicts and simplifying the build process.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> 3. Testing Enhancements:
>>>>>>
>>>>>>  - Test Suite Updates: The PR includes updates to Hive’s test suite
>>>>>> to ensure all tests pass under JDK 17. This likely involved modifying 
>>>>>> tests
>>>>>> that needed adjustments to align with JDK 17’s behaviour.
>>>>>>
>>>>>>  - New Tests: New tests may have been added to cover areas where JDK
>>>>>> 17 introduced new features or changes that could impact Hive.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> 4. Compatibility Checks:
>>>>>>
>>>>>>  - JDK Version Verification: A new compatibility check has been
