> Why do we use a size-1 byte array instead of a single byte for this field? @vvcephei There's a `RecordsFieldType` already created for `byte[]` but not one for `byte` so to get the `subscriptionInfo.json` to work I would've had to create a `RecordsFieldType` for `byte` and decided that leveraging the existing field type would be easier. If you're strongly opposed to this solution I can look into creating a new field type ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
