Alexandre Normand commented on AVRO-1269:
-----------------------------------------
Regarding Doug's last comment, I'm making documentation changes as part of
AVRO-1268 since that touches Stringable functionality and this should cover the
reflect package doc.
> AVRO is converting ORACLE,Netezza,Teradata decmials & long integers to
> Strings.
