Jeremy Kahn commented on AVRO-1318:
-----------------------------------

I prefer the approach you ([~cutting]) suggest -- especially the object aspects 
of it, and especially if the objects can be derived from 
{{collections.Sequence}} and {{collections.Mapping}} so that existing accessors 
can keep working the same way.

Unfortunately, I don't have any free cycles for this, though I'd be happy to 
contribute later in July. I don't know if this should block 1.7.5 release 
though.

> Python schema objects need to produce a simple representation that 
> demonstrates their field identity.   {avro.schema.Schema} objects need to 
> provide a {fingerprint} member field to enable quick checking of schema 
> matching (even when the schema has other, possibly changed decoration).
> Based on a patch pulled from [~laserson]'s proposed changes to make a 
> collection of C-typing hints.  These changes will be backwards-compatible.
