Prasad Chakka commented on HIVE-972:
------------------------------------

12. Block alter_table, alter_partition queries in metastore server side code 
rather than the ql or client side code.

Zheng, AFAIK backward compatibility (i.e. older code acting against latest 
schema) should not be a problem. schema upgrade should happen automatically if 
users haven't changed or modified datanuclues/jpox parameters in 
hive-default.xml.

> support views
