Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-36:
----------------------------------
> So we stick to a JSON compliant scheme (base 64) for definition of default
> values of a binary field
URL encoding would be just as JSON compliant.
> and use the hex bytes for data.
Binary data is not encoded, not with hex or otherwise. It's just written as a
sequence of 8-bit bytes.
> binary default values do not decode base64
