Ashish K Singh commented on KAFKA-1696:
---------------------------------------
[~omkreddy] I had to convert this JIRA from sub-task to a new feature JIRA, to
be able to create sub-tasks. Also created some sub-tasks. I have left most of
them open, except the first one, for which I plan to submit a PR shortly. Also,
I have partially looked into authentication via tokens, basically add a
TokenAuthenticator, so if you are Ok with me taking up that task, I will be
happy to.
> Kafka should be able to generate Hadoop delegation tokens
