Hello all, We want to kick off some discussions about error handling and logging conventions. With a number of great patch contributions to Kafka recently, it is good time for us to sit down and think a little bit more about the coding style guidelines we have (http://kafka.apache.org/coding-guide.html).
People at LinkedIn have discussed a bit about some observed issues about the error handling and logging verboseness, and here is a summary of the bullet points covered: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+Error+Handling+and+Logging We would like to collect as much comments as possible before we move ahead to those logging cleaning JIRAs mentioned in the wiki, so please feel free to shoot any thoughts and suggestions around this topic. -- Guozhang
