Ryan Blue commented on AVRO-1746:
---------------------------------

[~yadavsaroj], unsolicited contributions are always a good thing, thanks for 
offering! What do you want to use this for?

A quick note of caution on JSON, though. I generally describe human-readability 
as the Siren song of file formats. Its okay for debugging, but you tend to end 
up with applications that get pretty bad performance. I think that rather than 
making the format human-readable, you really want the tooling around the format 
to make debugging easier. You might consider spending time making debugging 
encoded data easier rather than making encoded data human-readable.
