As a quick follow up, for community members looking for areas they are
familiar with to review I have updated the KIP table at the bottom of
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Release+Plan+0.10.2.0
with a column annotating the area of code the KIP/PR is related to (e.g.
consumer, streams, connect, broker) to help you find which PRs you are
comfortable reviewing quickly.
