Apache Hive Contributor Day is a special event hosted as part of Yahoo's Hadoop Summit.
Resources for mini-hackathon:
- PluginDeveloperKit has info on the new pdk; download this snapshot build of Hive which includes it
- you'll need a Mac or Linux development environment with Hive+Hadoop already installed on it per these instructions; for Hive, use the snapshot
- HIVE-1545 has the UDF libraries we'd like to get cleaned up for inclusion in Hive or extension libraries (download core.tar.gz and/or ext.tar.gz)
