Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-340:
-----------------------------------

The spec should also describe how URIs may be used to name Avro transports.  
Initially we'll only specify http: uris.

Avro should only specify transports that we intend to support long-term.  We 
may add other transports subsequently, but, in the meantime, we should not 
encourage implementations of non-standard transports, as they will complicate 
compatibility: we do not want to have to support them long-term.

Each Avro implementation should implement clients for all transports in the 
spec, so that applications can talk to any Avro-based service.  They need not 
implement servers for all server transports however.
