Just wondering: Could this be done with `"type": "decimal"` + `"java-type": "java.math.BigDecimal` ? Honestly I am not familiar with `java-type`. I'm asking because the new `"type": "big-decimal"` looks too Java specific to me. In Rust the closest I know of is https://crates.io/crates/rust_decimal. In Python I think it is https://docs.python.org/3/library/decimal.html, in C# - BigRational ?!, etc. If we are going to add something new to the Spec then we should try to make it as compatible as possible for most/all of the SDKs. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
