Doug Cutting updated AVRO-806:
------------------------------

    Description: Define a column-major file format.  This would permit better compression and also permit efficient skipping of fields that are not of interest.  (was: Define a codec that, when a data file's schema is a record schema, writes blocks within the file in column-major order.  This would permit better compression and also permit efficient skipping of fields that are not of interest.)
        Summary: add a column-major file format  (was: add a column-major codec for data files)
