Hi Team Kafka,
Here's a short status update before I am merging trunk into 0.10.0
branch and creating a new release candidate, tomorrow morning.
KIPs included in the release:
KIP-28 Kafka Streams
KIP-31 Relative offsets in compressed messages
KIP-32 Add timestamps to messages
KIP-36 Rack awareness
KIP-41 KafkaConsumer max records
KIP-42 Client interceptors
KIP-45 Standardize client sequences (Note: There is currently a
blocking asking to modify the APIs again - KAFKA-3633, I am unhappy
about the last minute changes, but happy to discuss)
KIP-51 List Connectors REST API
KIP-4 Admin API (Just the metadata changes)
KIP-35 Protocol version improvements
KIP-43 SASL improvements
KIP-52 Connector Control API
KIPs that unfortunately need to be pushed out:
KIP-33 Time-based index
KIP-47 Timestamp-based deletion policy
KIP-49 Fair Partition Assignment policy
KIP-50 Improve Authz interface
Two KIPs may get in after the release (provided high quality,
documented and well-tested PR):
KIP-57 - fixing an issue with LZ4 compression (since it is a bug fix)
KIP-56 - Cross Origins HTTP Requests for KafkaConnect (since it is low risk)
Tests, bug fixes and documentation changes are welcome any time.
Yours,
${RM}
