> It would be useful to be able to read SequenceFile-based data into an Avro-based Java mapreduce program.  Once the reflect, specific and generic representations are fully compatible (AVRO-638) then a RecordReader for SequenceFiles could be added that uses Avro's reflect representation.  AvroOutputFormat could also be changed to accept such reflected data.
