Thomas Friedrich commented on AVRO-1550:
----------------------------------------

Thanks, Doug. You are right, the public Protobuf APIs that avro-protobuf use haven't changed between Protobuf 2.4 and 2.5. The only reason the avro-protobuf UTs fail with Protobuf 2.5 is because they included generated code. 
Since other Apache projects like Hadoop, HBase and Hive already moved their dependency to Protobuf 2.5. I think Avro should move up as well for 1.8.0.
