dhruve commented on issue #23735: [SPARK-26801][SQL] Read avro types other than 
record
URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/23735#issuecomment-462930054
 
 
   - I can't say for certain how the spark community would like to handle the 
issue. If there is an incompatibility between avro serde's, I believe most of 
the consumers of avro module would be affected. We could either support reading 
the old and new format or we could just let the users deal with writing 
converters. But then I believe the issue will be more broader as its not just 
spark that will be affected but every open source project providing utilities 
to deal with avro files. 
   - I thought about generating the files dynamically, but this was more of a 
convenience as we would have to add one more dependency for just generating the 
avro files and specify schemas for all of them.  I am not too picky about this.
