Thanks for doing that. It was very needed.

I think that recursive schemas are a powerful feature of Avro that enable
the modelling of hierarchies,
a pretty common data structure. l myself have used this feature in a large
scale system before.
The recursion is handled elegantly and naturally in the code with recursive
functions so I don't
I've used recursion in the past to use Avro to get a binary representation
of JSON. Given the popularity of JSON and the fact that Avro includes
support for converting it, I think it makes sense to continue allowing
recursive schemas.

I’m against this proposal. Sure, recursion adds complexity, but recursive
types are also extremely powerful and one of the most interesting features
of a tool like this. I have been experimenting in the other direction;
considering a way to compose avro schema descriptions in avro. Recursion is
First, this creates a data incompatibility, not just an API
incompatibility, so it should not be permitted in 1.9.0. Apps that worked,
even when updated for API changes, will not be able to read data they could
before they upgraded.
Second, folks might actually use this feature in reasonable
I understand we've been willing to introduce backward-incompatible API
changes (not file-format changes) into minor release versions. If so,
here's an idea for consideration:
Let's eliminate recursive records from Avro 1.9.x. Recursion
introduces a _lot_ of complexity into many parts of the
