Schema evolution in Avro requires access to both the schema used when
writing the data and the desired Schema for reading the data.
Normally, Avro data is stored in some container format (i.e. the one in the
spec[1]) and the parsing library takes care of pulling the schema used when
writing out
On a related note, is there a tool that can check the backwards compatibility
of schemas? I found some old messages talking about it, but no actual tool. I
guess I could hack it together using some functions in the Avro library.
