Lefty Leverenz commented on ORC-46:
-----------------------------------

Doc note:  Eventually the documentation should be updated.

Now it just says:  "If the ORC file writer selects a generic compression codec 
(zlib or snappy), every part of the ORC file except for the Postscript is 
compressed with that codec."  And the Hive ORC documentation says:  "The codec 
can be Snappy, Zlib, or none."

LZO should also be added.

> Reserve CompressionKind values for LZ4 and ZSTD

> We are going to start using ORC with LZ4 and ZSTD compression types in Presto 
> (which has its own reader and soon its own writer). Registering these as 
> official CompressionKind values now will avoid future compatibility issues.
