Joydeep Sen Sarma commented on HIVE-298:
----------------------------------------

This doesn't make sense .. (can't keep putting forward compatibility changes in 
older branches).

Perhaps we need to have some layer of indirection (I think for a while hive1 - 
we had aliases for serdes) - so that we can default to different 
implementations (for delimited text deserialization) in different versions 
without breaking compatibility. thoughts?


> Make branch 0.2 forward compatible with tables created with LazySimpleSerDe

> We can easily make branch 0.2 forward-compatible with tables created with 
> LazySimpleSerDe (starting branch 0.3), since LazySimpleSerDe has exactly the 
> same serialized format as TCTLSeparatedProtocol and 
> MetadataTypedColumnsetSerDe.
> The plan is to directly map it to TCTLSeparatedProtocal.
