I see from Doug's email that the schema is required now, but it's pretty annoying to fetch. Maybe we should add a type of Array that implements the avro array interface but doesn't require a schema? Would such a patch be welcome? :) I'm pushing on this because if you look at my sample code, it's by far the ugliest part of assembling a reply. robey
