Jason Dere commented on HIVE-6047:
----------------------------------

Thanks for the feedback.

1. Yeah, will provide some design details. Still need to think though some of 
this.
2. Definitely will be metastore changes - will provide those as part of the 
design details.
3. I wasn't aware of any CREATE FUNCTION spec in the SQL standard .. is there 
one?
4. True, the db name ends up being more of a namespace, but I was under the 
impression that Hive databases were more like a schema name.  Even if a user 
has specified "use database A", are they still able to select/join data from a 
table in another database? I thought this was the case.
5. Do you mean it should read "Sets of JARs/files/archives can be saved .."? 
Sure, will fix.
6. If we are able to create them using a database name, then yes it would make 
sense to be able to specify the DB name to get the jar/file/archive sets for 
that database. Without a db name, then I guess it would default to the current 
database.

> Currently Hive only supports temporary UDFs which must be re-registered when
