Hi all, Let's start a vote on KIP-26: Add Copycat connector framework for data import/export
For reference, here's the wiki: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=58851767 And the mailing list thread (split across two months): http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/kafka-dev/201506.mbox/%3CCAE1jLMOEJjnorFK5CtR3g-n%3Dm_AkrFsYeccsB4QimTRfGBrAGQ%40mail.gmail.com%3E http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/kafka-dev/201507.mbox/%3CCAHwHRrUeNh%2BnCHwCTUCrcipHM3Po0ECUysO%2B%3DX3nwUeOGrcgdw%40mail.gmail.com%3E Just to clarify since this is a bit different from the KIPs voted on so far, the KIP just covers including Copycat in Kafka (rather than having it as a separate project). While the KIP aimed to be clear about the exact scope, the details require further discussion. The aim is to include some connectors as well, at a minimum for demonstration purposes, but the expectation is that connector development will, by necessity, be federated. I'll kick it off with a +1 (non-binding). -- Thanks, Ewen
