Jeff Hammerbacher commented on HIVE-1135:
-----------------------------------------

I'd suggest using something other than forrest for the official documentation. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-319 for some suggested replacements.

> Currently the Hive Language Manual and many other critical pieces of documentation are on the Hive wiki. 
> Right now we count on the author of a patch to follow up and add wiki entries. While we do a decent job with this, new features can be missed. Or using running older/newer branches can not locate relevant documentation for their branch.

> We should generate our documentation in the way hadoop & hbase does, inline using forest. I would like to take the lead on this, but we need a lot of consensus on doing this properly.
