------------------------------------------

[~leftylev] Thanks for detailed info here.

I have updated the JIRA's release note and documentation on Avro's usage in Hive, https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/AvroSerDe. Feel free to make it better.

> Avro is well established and widely used within Hive, however creating Avro-backed tables requires the messy listing of the SerDe, InputFormat and OutputFormat classes.
> Similarly to HIVE-5783 for Parquet, Hive would be easier to use if it had native Avro support.
