Hi Fokko, Whenever I see an empty ticket and/or Github description (like https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3884, https://github.com/apache/avro/pull/2554) the first thing that comes to my mind is to close it without giving an explanation too! If the reporter does not bother to help him/herself then there is no need to waste my time either! I didn't close your PR because your are a fellow committer in the project. But now I think this is even worse! A newbie may not know how to report an issue or how to propose an improvement, but I expect better from a long-time Apache committer! Same for https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3871. Such a JIRA issue is plain useless. In a few months/years even you won't remember why you needed the new class.
For changes in the specification I'd expect a discussion in the mailing list (like this one) that provides information on what kind of problems there are and a proposal on how to solve them. A PR may accompany the discussion just to make it more clear but without an agreement on the mailing list a change of the spec should not be made!
