Owen O'Malley commented on HIVE-17924:
--------------------------------------
Which is the necessary method?
Hive is on Java 8 now, I believe, which would mean we can add default methods
to interfaces.
> Restore SerDe by reverting HIVE-15167 to unbreak API compatibility

> HIVE-15167 broke compatibility badly for very little gain and caused a lot of
