Hi,
sorry to spam the dev-list. Looking back at the specs and the un-specific
error messages I was really not sure:
Is:
```
{ "type": { "type": "array", "items": "string"}, "logicalType": "mytype"}
```
a valid schema? or is it invalid and has to be
```
{ "type": "array", "items": "string", "logicalType": "mytype"}
```
Thank you for your patience.
Best
Holger Hoefling
