ryan rawson commented on AVRO-372:
----------------------------------

+1 on AvroIDL. Reviewing the Avro for HBase code, it was very illustrative to review the .genavro and ignore the .avpc code completely.

> No one likes the name genavro. Let's rename to one of these:
> - AvroIDL (Interface Description Language)
> - AvroHDL (Highlevel Description Language)
> - AvroDL (Description Language)
> The abbreviation IDL might conjure up CORBA nightmares for people. Thoughts?
