Viktor Somogyi commented on KAFKA-5536:
---------------------------------------
I believe the reason (or one of the reasons) for having the clients in java is
to avoid the additional extra scala dependencies. While the brokers are running
alone (ideally) on a box, the clients can be part of a complicated environment,
therefore minimalizing the number of dependencies are desirable.

> Hi,
> is there any specific reason why tools are splitted between Java and Scala

> Maybe it could be better having only one language for all of them.
> What do you think ?
> Thanks,
