Thanks, that is an idea! I don't have access to the Jira but I think it
would be worthwhile to fix. LogicalTypes should support complex types
according to the spec as i read it. At least do that it doesn't throw this
unintended error.
Thanks for you response and thanks for avro. Am trying to use it now in the
ML space as i think it is better than a lot of the other solutions out
there.
