Aaron Kimball commented on HADOOP-6708:
---------------------------------------
Possibly. But then we'd have to wait for the next Avro release as well, and
then ensure that this Avro version works with the available Hadoop releases,
which would introduce further dependency-management complications. The point of
doing this large object format work here is for broader compatibility. Until
Avro compatibility in general is improved in Hadoop (e.g., resolution of
MAPREDUCE-815), it doesn't seem like this directly facilitates this goal.
