Joel Koshy commented on KAFKA-1944:
-----------------------------------
Perhaps KIP would be overkill for this. I would recommend just keeping the old
config name and add the new config. If the user specifies the old config emit a
warning that it will be deprecated.
> Rename LogCleaner and related classes to LogCompactor

> Project: Kafka

> Following a mailing list discussion:

> Deleting old logs happens elsewhere from what I've seen."
> Note that this may require renaming related classes, objects, configs and
> metrics.
