Hello Kafka users, developers and client-developers, This is the first candidate for release of Apache Kafka 0.10.1.0. This is a major release that includes great new features including throttled replication, secure quotas, time-based log searching, and queryable state for Kafka Streams. A full list of the content can be found here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Release+Plan+0.10.1. Since this is a major release, we will give people more time to try it out and give feedback.
