Chris Douglas commented on MAPREDUCE-1634:
------------------------------------------
bq. I'm now leaning towards adding this to Avro rather than MapReduce. It tries
to use only 0.19 APIs so it can work with any recent Hadoop release.
Would users working in Avro think to look in that project, rather than
MapReduce, for these classes? Right now, Avro doesn't have any dependencies on
MapReduce or pre-split Hadoop, right? Wouldn't this create a circular
dependency? What are the advantages to adding this to Avro instead of MapReduce?
> add input and output formats for Avro value wrappers
