Jeff Hammerbacher commented on AVRO-720:
----------------------------------------
The workaround was not difficult, no. We should add some documentation
someplace for those making the 1.3 -> 1.4 upgrade, but otherwise, I think we're
good. I should not be the final arbiter of Java style, however.
> Generated code for arrays should accept extensions of array content type

> Discovered when I upgraded a server from 1.3 to 1.4: trying to stuff a
> GenericData.Array<Utf8> object into a List<CharSequence> does not work; Avro
> should generate List<? implements CharSequence> instead. The same holds for
> other array types.
