Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-36:
----------------------------------
Another possibility, suggested by Owen O'Malley, is that default values for
binary fields could be arrays of numbers, e.g.:
{code}
{"name": "foo", "type": "bytes", "default": [0,0,0,0]}
{code}
> binary default values do not decode base64

> The specification says that default values for binary data are base64 encoded
> text, but the Java implementation uses the raw bytes of the textual value,
> and does not perform base64 decoded as specified.
