Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-1130:
----------------------------------
Fair enough. If we are going to make the change let's go with data.dirs as that
will be the least ambiguous.
> "log.dirs" is a confusing property name

> "log.dirs" is a somewhat misleading config name. The term "log" comes from an
> internal Kafka class name, and shouldn't leak out into the public API (in
> this case, the config).
> Something like "data.dirs" would be less confusing.
