Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-6806:
--------------------------------------
Looks good, thanks [~singhashish].
But (ever the nitpicker) we probably need Hive versions matched with Avro
versions, because the wiki covers all Hive versions. Does Hive 0.13 also use
Avro 1.7.5? If the Avro version is somewhere in the code, I can compile a list
of Avro versions for various Hive versions.
Of course, this is beyond the scope of the jira. So if it's more than a
moment's work, we should raise a new issue.

> Avro is well established and widely used within Hive, however creating
> Avro-backed tables requires the messy listing of the SerDe, InputFormat and
> OutputFormat classes.
> Similarly to HIVE-5783 for Parquet, Hive would be easier to use if it had
> native Avro support.
