Hue v1.2.0, released Feb 21, 2011
=================================

Hue is a web interface for Hadoop, and a platform for building custom
applications with a rich framework. The 1.2.0 is a minor release, largely
focused on bug fixes and compatibility with the upcoming release of Cloudera's
Distribution for Apache Hadoop 3, beta 4.

Notable Changes and Caveats
---------------------------

Notable changes:

* Upgraded Django to 1.2
* Many HueChart improvements and bug fixes
* Upgraded included Hive from 0.5 to 0.7
* Beeswax no longer leaks file descriptors
* Renamed all JavaScript references of "CCS" to "Hue"

Caveats:

* Hue 1.2.0 only works with CDH3b4 or newer. CDH2 and earlier versions of CDH3
will not work.
* The included version of Hive has been upgraded from 0.5 to 0.7. This version
of Hive has changed the format for the metastore. Upgrading Hue 1.2 will require
you to upgrade your metastore version using the upgrade scripts included with
Hive.
