Hi,
I read the changes for single configuration and deprecated
OffsetResetStrategy.java.

AM7: Question: The KIP says that previous supported values were
earliest/latest/none and new back:<duration> config would be added. We have
no definition of "none" in the newly introduced AutoOffsetReset.java class
hence I am assuming that if "none" is specified as a config option then
that config will be ignored, correct? Or are we deprecating the usage of
"none" altogether?

AM8: Minor: The new class AutoOffsetReset under interfaces mentions the
name as OffsetResetStrategy.java. This requires correction.

AM9: Is the package name correct for AutoOffsetReset as
org.apache.kafka.streams, shouldn't it be under clients package?

AM10: What does -1L and -2L mean as long for latest and earliest in
AutoOffsetReset.java? Is it just a long placeholder which will never be
used elsewhere for latest and earliest? If yes then does it make sense to
keep long as Optional, and use Optional.empty() for latest and earliest?

Regards,
Apoorv Mittal
