Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-366:
-----------------------------------
> Would there be interest in this?
Sure, it doesn't hurt to have more codecs implemented, for benchmarking, etc.
Nor does it probably harm much to add it to to the spec's list of reserved
codec names.
However I am a bit reluctant to declare now which codecs we expect all
implementations to implement. Perhaps rather than thinking of these as
required and optional codecs we should describe things as primary and
secondary: we suggest that a language implement primary codecs before
secondary, to increase interoperability. I think one codec in the LZ family
should be primary, but probably only one.
