Scott Carey commented on AVRO-1022:
-----------------------------------
I agree with the principle of 'generate strictly, accept liberally' with
respect to schema names.
Implementations should restrict names to simple ASCII characters that match the
pattern in the spec in almost all cases. Implementations should accept schemas
as liberally as possible, up to any name that does not include a '.'. Being
able to pass through a schema from another system is a powerful use case.
Later we can add to the specification how to encode '.' in a name for pass
through encoding use cases if it ever comes up.
