> Py3 Implementation vs Py2 Implementation API compatibility
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1880
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1880
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: python
> Affects Versions: 1.8.1
> Reporter: Brian Bruggeman
> Priority: Major
>
> The Python3 API has been changed from the Python2 API and this can affect
> backwards compatibility when migrating or building libraries that work with
> both Python3 and Python2.
> The exact case I've found was 'validate' vs 'Validate'. Arguably, the
> python2 version is more correct from a Pep8 (see:
> https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/) standpoint. I found no reason
> mentioned that I've found why the API might have been changed. In addition,
> the Python 3 API is inconsistent within itself: some functions are CamelCase
> and some are snake_case.
> While this may be out of scope for the issue above, I'm not sure why the
> current implementations are segregated. There doesn't appear to be a reason
> why there are two separate implementations for python: one for python 3 and
> one for python 2.
> Proposal is to create an API that is directly compatible with Python 2 and
> then deprecate the current Python 3 API where it is different.
