This seems aggressive. We have 4 open blockers and 68 other issues slated for 0.7.0. https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&mode=hide&sorter/order=DESC&sorter/field=priority&resolution=-1&pid=12310843&fixfor=12315150 The indexing, security, and statistics issues effect the metastore. This type of changes should be heavily vetted. Edward
