-1 Whilst I agree that version alignment is important for Pivotal and users of HDB (my own self being a HDP client).
We have to remember this is an open source Apache project and Pivotal are providing a downstream supported version, surely this should be a case of Pivotal aligning to the Apache Version, not the other-way around. Likewise, if any other company wished to provide a supported bundle of HAWQ, then I wouldn’t expect the open source Apache project to change their versioning for a commercial enterprise. I see this much the same way multiple companies support postgres.
