-------------------------------------------------
Thanks Martin, you can assign it to me.
I have some other questions, should I crate separate tickets or can we do them
all here? I can rename it to "doc improvements"
*Fixed types*
I would like to have an example of defaults for the fixed type when using AVDL.
I couldn't find any information, and I'm not even sure it support a default
value.
*Decimal type*
How to specify a default value? I found a bit as well:
{code:java}
decimal(30,12) dec = "\u0000\u0000";
// decimal(30,12) dec2 = 1.2; {code}
The 2nd doesn't work, I saw them in this sample:
[https://github.com/zolyfarkas/avro-schema-examples/blob/master/test-common/src/main/avro/common.avdl#L51]
It's not entirely clear what's the meaning of precision and scale, it would be
nice if we could have some examples in the spec itself:
