Daniel Dai commented on PIG-1429:
---------------------------------
Hi, Gianmarco,
We didn't hear back from original author for a while, so we assume he will not
be able to continue working on this issue. That's why we put it as a GSOC
project.
As for the refactoring, IMHO, I don't see a major refactoring point, but there
are code changes all around places. The hard part is not missing a place,
rather than a complete refactoring.

> Pig needs a Boolean data type. Pig-1097 is dependent on doing this.
> I volunteer. Is there anything beyond the work in src/org/apache/pig/data/
> plus unit tests to make this work?
> This is a candidate project for Google summer of code 2011. More information
> about the program can be found at http://wiki.apache.org/pig/GSoc2011
