Eelco Hillenius commented on AVRO-200:
--------------------------------------
I'm using the introspection based API, and for the rest use regular datatypes,
like Integers and such. The only fields that are Avro-specific are strings,
which need to be Utf8 in order for Avro to support them. It would be nice to
have my records serializable without doing anything specific for it with Avro.
And haven't looked at other record types, but if making records serializable is
as easy as letting them implement serializable, wouldn't that be a good idea?

> Is there any reason that Utf8 is not serializable? I can't think of any
> problems with letting it implement the Serializable interface. Which I would
> like because then I can send my Avro objects over the wire/ serialize them
> with other mechanisms than Avro.
