> SQL engines that store data in Avro need to be able to store times and
> timestamps to meet the SQL spec. For portability, those values should be
> labelled so other readers can work with the data. I propose adding two new
> logical types:
> * time-micros: annotates a long, represents the number of microseconds from
> midnight.
> * timestamp-micros: annotates a long, represents the number of microseconds
> from the unix epoch.
> Like the other time types, these representations match the ones that were
> just added to Parquet (PARQUET-200) to make implementations easier.
