ASF GitHub Bot commented on KAFKA-5631: --------------------------------------- GitHub user umesh9794 opened a pull request: https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/4259 KAFKA-5631 : Use Jackson for serialising to JSON This PR replaces the existing `Json.encode` to use Jackson serialization. Since the change is spread more than one module, it relies on the existing tests written for those modules. If required, I can write new tests as well. Please suggest.
