Joe, thanks for doing this. Couple of questions before I can vote because I'm not sure if any of these would block voting:
>From below: > http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/kafka/trunk/KEYS in addition to This link is out of date - should be http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/kafka/KEYS In release notes: > http://people.apache.org/~joestein/kafka-0.8.0-candidate2/RELEASE_NOTES.html KAFKA-296, KAFKA-314, KAFKA-317 were closed as won't fix since we removed non-java clients. Did you use a jira query to get the list? If so, we can filter out anything that is not marked as resolved-fixed. In kafka-0.8.0-src.tgz: The DISCLAIMER file need not be there or needs to be updated (it talks about Kafka being an incubator project). Looks good otherwise!
