Hi Key,

Thank you so much for your update!!
Look forward to the shared code from AMPLab.  As a member of the Spark 
community, I really hope that I could help to run TPC-DS on SparkSQL.  At the 
moment, I am trying TPC-H 22 queries on SparkSQL 1.1.0 +Hive 0.12, and Hive 
0.13.1 respectively (waiting Spark 1.2).
