Hello all, There hasn't been much discussion on KIP-695 so far, so I'd like to go ahead and call for a vote.
As a reminder, the purpose of KIP-695 to improve on the "task idling" feature we introduced in KIP-353. This KIP will allow Streams to offer deterministic time semantics in join-type topologies. For example, it makes sure that when you join two topics, that we collate the topics by timestamp. That was always the intent with task idling (KIP- 353), but it turns out the previous mechanism couldn't provide the desired semantics. The details are here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/JSXZCQ Thanks, -John
