> The only thing I note is that we're changing the terminology a little (option -> optional). While I agree with the using `optional` as it is less confusing, we're slightly inconsistent. The distinction I was going for was between an optional field (may be null) and an option schema (a union of null and another type). I know it's a bit weird, but I didn't want to rename all of the uses of the latter meaning because we have `isOptionSchema`, `toOption`, and `fromOption` methods. I think this is the cleanest option. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
