What's Changing
Fixing a broken link to the Avro site.
Why
The CI link checker spotted it when I put up unrelated changes in #5243.
Details
It looks like the Avro site may be mid-overhaul and I suspect they might make more changes before the dust settles. The "specs" that were at the old link are now at a URL of the format
https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.12.0/specification/
with a locked-in version string, andcurrent
orlatest
doesn't work when I try it in place of the1.12.0
. Meanwhile they do have a selection called++version++
in their left-hand nav such that the URL https://avro.apache.org/docs/++version++/specification/ does work and I suspect that's their equivalent of "current" now. But that looks ugly enough that I suspect if we start linking to it, they might well break it again if they find a way to putcurrent
orlatest
there instead.Meanwhile, our ZNG format doc also happens to link to Avro but in that case it just points to the top-level site, so in the interest of simplicity I've just proposed doing the same here. 🤪
