Sean Busbey commented on AVRO-2077:
-----------------------------------

this would be great! if we can make it work on earlier release lines that would be even better.

> It seems that avro-tools doesn't have any option to check for a given Avro file and a given reader schema (JSON file or URL) that the reader's schema is compatible with the writer's schema. This tool should report every compatibility problem (if there's any).
> According my knowledge, there's no such option for avro-tools as of now.
