----------------------------------
[~olga] / [~rohini], I have a patch for this issue. Is ReviewBoard still the
right place to put it?

> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Jacob Tolar
> Priority: Major
>
> Piggybank's AvroStorage doesn't put the Avro map value type into the Pig
> schema.The map value has unknown type (=> is treated as bytearray).
>
> Pig's schema interface understands the concept of a map value type. This
> information should be made available when using Avro.
>
> Relevant bit of code:
