Hi!

We're interested in the Date/Time/Timestamp part of the spec. A bit of 
background: our RabbitMQ framework 
(https://github.com/nomnom-insights/nomnom.bunnicula) supports pluggable 
serialization and adopting Avro made our life easier. We're using it in 
couple of RPC-over-HTTP calls and that also simplified a couple of things.
The downside of current approach is that we have to encode all timestamps 
as long and encode in the application logic which attributes need to be 
converted to DateTimes after deserializing (or the other way around).

Thanks,

Łukasz
