Ryan Skraba commented on AVRO-2579:
-----------------------------------

Thanks for pointing this out -- it's just a bit too late to add a fix for 
1.10.2.  This looks like it could really catch someone off guard during a 
migration...

On the positive side, we haven't seen reports of this breaking current user 
code during a migration.  It could be that ReflectData-generated schemas are 
more "ephemeral" and it doesn't matter that field order changed, or it could be 
that reader/writer schemas are taken into account, matching fields by name 
during resolution.

Would you like to create a new JIRA to track this going forward?
