Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-1006:
------------------------------------
This looks generally good. A few nits:
- In class and method names, should we abbreviate 'fp' or spell out
'fingerprint'? FP means "floating point" to my eye.
- Might we instead put this in org.apache.avro.SchemaFingerprint, rather than
in util? Right now things in the util package depend only on the JDK, not on
other parts of Avro.
- Public methods and classes need javadoc comments.
- The changes to the spec are not correctly processed by Forrest 0.8 for me.
