Ashwin Pankaj updated KAFKA-20032:
----------------------------------
Description:
Apache Kafka lacks a concrete, centralized definition of what constitutes a
public API. The most relevant information currently available is found
[here|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=50859233#KafkaImprovementProposals-Whatisconsidereda%22majorchange%22thatneedsaKIP].
Without formal definition or guardrails, there is a risk that builders may
inadvertently import internal classes leading to possible build breakages when
they compile against a newer Kafka version
