Holger Hoffstätte commented on AVRO-812:
----------------------------------------

mvn avro:help now gives:

[..]

Apache Avro Maven Plugin
  Maven plugin for Avro IDL and Specific API Compilers

This plugin has 4 goals:

avro:help
  Display help information on avro-maven-plugin.
  Call
    mvn avro:help -Ddetail=true -Dgoal=<goal-name>
  to display parameter details.

avro:idl-protocol
  Compile an Avro schema file.

avro:protocol
  Compile an Avro protocol schema file.

avro:schema
  Compile an Avro schema file.

[..]

It's not entirely clear to me what the differences between the goals are, as 
idl-protocol and schema claim to do the same. A few clarifying comments added 
to the respective goals would be nice.
