Raymie Stata commented on AVRO-30:
----------------------------------

Back to namespaces: I agree that we should eliminate namespaces for schemas but 
keep them for protocols.

Implications:

* When comparing two schemas each from a different protocol, the namespaces of 
the containing protocols should be ignored.

* The Avro spec says that records exchanged during RPC handshake use 
a"namespace of "org.apache.avro.ipc".  This should be removed.


> name lookup should consider namespace

> When a record schema is referred to by name, Avro will currently return any 
> known record definition with that name, regardless of its namespace.  
> Instead, unqualified references should refer to names in the current 
> namespace, and namespace-qualfied names should look for a record in the given 
> namespace.
