Wes McKinney created ARROW-3050:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: [C++] Adopt HiveServer2 client C++ codebase
                 Key: ARROW-3050
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3050
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: C++
            Reporter: Wes McKinney


I helped develop a small C++/Python library for interacting with databases like 
Hive and Impala via the HiveServer2 Thrift protocol and making them accessible 
to Python / pandas:

https://github.com/cloudera/hs2client

Internally this interfaces with HS2's own columnar representation. Arrow is a 
natural partner for this project, much of which could be discarded. I think 
Arrow would make as much sense as any place to develop this codebase further. 
It could be later split off into a new project if a large enough community 
develops

cc [~twmarshall] [~mjacobs] for thoughts

If we did this, do we need to do a software grant (essentially what I'm 
proposing is to fork)? Can we just attribute the original Cloudera authors in 
LICENSE.txt?
