Russell Jurney commented on AVRO-565:
-------------------------------------
On further reflection...
I have changed my code to have all strings become Unicode objects, which Avro
can write: decode(mystring, mycharset)
Before I was using UTF-8 encoded strings:
mystring.decode(mycharset).encode('utf-8)
As outlined above, this was resulting in double UTF-age. Suggest that the
API/docs should only accept Unicode objects, not strings, since strings do not
work well.
