Bug

[AVRO-450] - Python - Ruby interoperability failing with "Mail" client/server example
[AVRO-461] - ruby side cannot skip primitives
[AVRO-496] - python sample_http_client.py is broken
[AVRO-499] - reflection does not handle interfaces with overloaded method names
[AVRO-500] - ruby side dev packaging
[AVRO-516] - ruby: buffer length should not be little-endian in socket rpc
[AVRO-517] - Resolving Decoder fails in some cases
[AVRO-524] - DataFileWriter.appendTo leads to intermittent IOException during write()
[AVRO-527] - Undefined variable "schm" error
[AVRO-548] - Python client should handle CLIENT handshake match status correctly
[AVRO-554] - data files created by ruby DataWriter are extremely large
[AVRO-555] - missing license header
[AVRO-562] - ruby side has busted client handshaking

Improvement

[AVRO-486] - A more ruby-ish DataFile API.
[AVRO-491] - ruby implementation can do doubles and floats better
[AVRO-504] - ruby impl could stand better error messages on schema parsing
[AVRO-511] - ruby side should pass the rpc interop tests
[AVRO-514] - Ruby impl has unnecessary StringIO calls in Responder.
[AVRO-525] - remove unused imports
[AVRO-526] - Fall back to pure Python StringIO if cStringIO is not available
[AVRO-543] - ruby: schema comparison is hella slow
[AVRO-556] - Poor performance for Reader::readBytes can be easily improved
[AVRO-559] - Handle read_union error where the list index of the union branch to follow exceeds the size of the union schema
[AVRO-560] - Python impl should include system errors in every protocol
[AVRO-597] - Avro should be usable from JDK 1.5 programs
