Parth Brahmbhatt commented on KAFKA-2145:
-----------------------------------------

[~neelesh77] sorry for the delay on this

1) The objective is to have a Topic Owner field associated with the topic. 
Shall this be associated with the topic at all times?
Not sure what do you mean by "Shall this be associated with the topic at all 
times". The intent is to add a topic.config called owner which can either be a 
a string or a list of string (comma separated string) which is filled with the 
value of user executing the "create topic". This user could then add other 
users as co-owners in the same list. 
2) TopicCommand should be updated to reflect the owner field.

> We need to expose a way so users can identify users/groups that share 
> ownership of topic. We discussed adding this as part of 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2035 and agreed that it will be 
> simpler to add owner as a logconfig. 
> The owner field can be used for auditing and also by authorization layer to 
> grant access without having to explicitly configure acls.
