The console consumer broken windows on the 0.8.1 branch. Going through the quickstart I notice two issues:
1. Control-C now produces a spurious error message: [2014-03-04 20:44:38,026] WARN Reconnect due to socket error: null (kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer) 2. Somebody has added this useless message in the output: Consumed 3 messages I actually see 1. in the server logs as well. (2) seems clever but unfortunately with this message you actually can't DO anything with the console producer output like pipe it to another command because we are printing non-message text to the console. Does anyone know what the motivation for this is? If you want to count the lines just pipe it to something like wc. This is unix people! -Jay
