I can dig through my backlog and add TODOC13 or TODOC14 to a bunch of
issues.  Some are even earlier than Hive 0.13 ... sigh!

If you're digging through the JIRA queue, I suggest starting with the
0.13.0 and 0.13.1 release lists.  Check the end of the comments to see if I
(or anyone) said the doc was done.

Shall we lump 0.13.0 and 0.13.1 doc tasks as TODOC13?
