Doug Cutting updated AVRO-592:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.4.0)
This doesn't look like it's ready for 1.4.0, so I have unset its fix-version.
> Pig to Avro translation -- Pig DatumReader/Writer

>
> It would be great to use Avro to store Pig outputs. Because Avro persists
> the schema as well, one can store data in one script, then load it in another
> and preserve the schema.
> Additionally, one can serialize pig Tuples to Avro and read Avro into pig
> Tuples. Avro Schemas are significantly more rich than Pig schemas, but a
> limited translation is possible.
