Oscar Westra van Holthe - Kind updated AVRO-3436:
-------------------------------------------------
Component/s: spec
> [Spec] Clarify which names are allowed to be qualified with namespaces
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-3436
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3436
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: spec
> Reporter: Ryan Skraba
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Fix For: 1.11.1
>
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> The doc specifies that
> {quote}the name portion of a fullname, record field names, and enum symbols
> must match _[an alphanumeric regex without periods]_
> {quote}
> [https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/release-1.11.0/doc/src/content/xdocs/spec.xml#L277-L282]
> At first glance this could be read to imply that record field names and enum
> symbols have a "name portion" or that they could be fully qualified with a
> namespace, which is not the case.
> It would be simple and clear to specify that they are unqualified names at
> the definition of a field or enum symbol, as well as word this differently.
