>
> The named schema types record and enum have a documentation field. In 
> contrast to the Java implementation, the C# implementation of Avro is missing 
> this field in their canonical string representation returned by ToString().
> To fix this, it seems that it is enough to add writing the documentation 
> string to the WriteJsonFields method of RecordSchema and EnumSchema.
> This is more than a cosmetical problem as, for example, the Confluent schema 
> registry decides equivalence of schemas based on the canonical string 
> representation. The missing doc field in the C# implementation makes it hard 
> to emulate this concept of schema equivalence in an application using the C# 
> implementation of Avro.
