Hi Guozhang,

My suggestion was to not add kafka_2.12-0.10.1.0.tgz to downloads.html but to 
still run the build to generate the maven artefacts for 2.12 and still publish 
those to maven central.  That would allow projects with binary dependencies on 
kafka to obtain the required jars but hide away the tgz so as not to imply that 
it is suitable for production use.  Alternatively just do the regular release 
process and mark it as beta on the downloads page.  Either way you’ll get more 
exposure and testing of the 2.12 version which you won’t get via SNAPSHOTs from 
the trunk.,

cheers,
bern
