             Summary: Use logical types for Protobuf well known types when doing Avro schema generation
                 Key: AVRO-2935
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2935
             Project: Apache Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: java
    Affects Versions: 1.10.0
            Reporter: Joseph Glanville


When generating schemas from Protobuf descriptors Protobuf well known types like Timestamp are coverted to Avro long type without logical type annotation, i.e timestamp-millis/micros etc.
Supporting this would make the generated schemas more idiomatic and better integrate with systems that want to consume the converted data without losing metadata about timestamp fields etc.
