Scott Carey commented on AVRO-788:
----------------------------------
+1 Straightforward, looks good.
I wonder about the maven scope. Should this be 'provided' scope due to its use
of JNI? See http://code.google.com/p/snappy-java/ towards the bottom. A
maven user can override the current scope as needed or exclude the jar, so this
isn't critical and can be changed easily later.
