Scott Carey commented on AVRO-1021:
-----------------------------------
* There is a minor typo: "wdepth-first"
* Implementations that previously allowed for the previously lax restrictions
may need to continue to support that for some use cases. For example, if there
is an Avro Data File or old schema that used a name before defining it that
currently works, there must be a way for future versions to continue to work.
If we decide to accept this change, we should first provide an integration test
for all languages that checks conformance, for those languages that previously
supported 'declare before use' that there is still a mechanism that can parse
such schemas.
