Subject: Post-gres Hive Metastore

Hello,

Does anyone still use postgres as the Hive metastore SQL backend?

I'm in the process of writing scripts to upgrade the metastore schema as part of
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2612

I noticed that the postgres metastore upgrade scripts are missing the script 
for HIVE-2246.  This patch added a new table COLUMNS_V2 and completely 
rearranged the way column information is stored in the metastore.  Without this 
 change, I don't know how anyone could continue to use postgres for Hive after 
upgrading to HIVE-2246.

Thanks,
Kevin Wilfong
