Brock Noland commented on HIVE-6757:
------------------------------------
bq. Hive does not have a need to maintain backwards compatibility with third
party jars.
Simply because we do not have to, does not mean we cannot. More simply there is
no policy saying we cannot maintain backwards compatibility with existing
Parquet users. The work was done by the Hive developer community for the Hive
user community.
bq. There can't be any technical reason to block this patch.
Breaking Hive users, part of the Hive community, is a technical reason.
> Remove deprecated parquet classes from outside of org.apache package
