Jacques Nadeau updated DRILL-3516:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Some users are finding the documentation at 
http://drill.apache.org/docs/develop-custom-functions/ incomplete.  A pertinent 
thread:

http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/drill-user/201507.mbox/%3CCACAwhF%3DBxs-bXNdrm0pNJ4e8hZiaueqtZMhJ%3DRiBpf%3Dt%3DzEOWA%40mail.gmail.com%3E


  was:
The UDF documentation on the web side rooted at 
http://drill.apache.org/docs/develop-custom-functions/ does not describe the 
high level process for how UDF's are used, nor does it describe why simple 
things like toString can't work on *Holder data structures.

This leads to huge confusion and frustration on the part of potentially 
contributors.

Here are some pertinent threads:
