---------------------------------
[~rohini], any news on the Pig release?
> Investigate the future of the Pig action
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: OOZIE-3514
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-3514
> Project: Oozie
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Andras Salamon
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 6.0
>
>
> Pig is one of the oldest actions in Oozie, it was part of the original open
> source release.
> Right now one important Oozie task ( OOZIE-2973 - Make sure Oozie works with
> Hadoop 3 ) is blocked by a PIG issue ( PIG-5253 ) for a very long time and I
> don't really think this issue will be solved soon:
> * The latest Pig version (0.17) was released almost 2 years ago.
> * There are only [6 commits|https://github.com/apache/pig/commits/trunk] in
> the project in 2019.
> I think sooner or later we have to choose if we want to support Hadoop 3 or
> Pig, and Hadoop3 is much more important for Oozie. I think we may consider
> dropping Pig support. Of course such a big change should only targeted to
> 6.0, but we could already make it deprecated in the next minor (5.2) version.
