Hi Owen, I'd like to get involved. Please add me as well.
Thanks, Chinna Rao Lalam ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Owen O'Malley <omal...@apache.org<mailto:omal...@apache.org>> Date: Fri, Mar 20, 2015 at 3:14 AM Subject: ORC separate project To: "dev@hive.apache.org<mailto:dev@hive.apache.org>" <dev@hive.apache.org<mailto:dev@hive.apache.org>>, Lefty Leverenz <leftylever...@gmail.com<mailto:leftylever...@gmail.com>> All, Over the last year, there has been a fair number of projects that want to integrate with ORC, but don't want a dependence on Hive's exec jar. Additionally, we've been working on a C++ reader (and soon writer) and it would be great to host them both in the same project. Toward that end, I'd like to create a separate ORC project at Apache. There will be lots of technical details to work out, but I wanted to give the Hive community a chance to discuss it. Do any of the Hive committers want to be included on the proposal? Of the current Hive committers, my list looks like: * Alan * Gunther * Prasanth * Lefty * Owen * Sergey * Gopal * Kevin Did I miss anyone? Thanks! Owen
