Patrick Linehan commented on AVRO-153:
--------------------------------------
I think it makes sense to recommend naming conventions. If not in the spec
itself, at least in some kind of "style guide" quickly accessible from the main
Avro web pages. Protobut has a style guide in this vein:
http://code.google.com/apis/protocolbuffers/docs/style.html.
It would also be good to include on that page the recommended file extensions
for the various Avro files. As a n00b, I had to induce this convention from
disparate pages on the web. The convention seems to be:
*.avsc: Avro type schema
*.avpr: Avro protocol schema
*.avdl: Avro IDL file
*.avro: Avro data file
> Naming conventions for avro schemas, records and protocols
