Re: Getting ready for a Hive 1.2.2 release

[Vaibhav Gumashta <vg...@hortonworks.com>]

Hi All,

As mentioned by Sushanth earlier, I¹m beginning to work on the 1.2.2
release. I¹m trying to evaluate the stability of the branch by getting a
unit test run. I¹ll post the results shortly with tentative timelines.

Thanks,
‹Vaibhav
