[jira] [Created] (HIVE-13607) Change website references to HQL/HiveQL to SQL

Alan Gates created HIVE-13607:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Change website references to HQL/HiveQL to SQL
                 Key: HIVE-13607
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13607
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Website
            Reporter: Alan Gates
            Assignee: Alan Gates


When it started Hive's SQL dialect was far enough from standard SQL that the developers called it HQL or HiveQL. 

Over the years Hive's SQL dialect has matured.  It still has some oddities but it is explicitly pushing towards SQL 2011 conformance.  Calling the language anything but SQL now is confusing for users.

In addition to changing the website I propose to make changes in the wiki.
