Hey hcat gurus - We're making a big push to get off hcat 0.2 and onto trunk and the necessary changes are in this review. This is a huge change for us because it switches to the serde read path, instead of LoadFunc's like 0.2 supported.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-443
I would be super appreciative of a review!
