Richard Fussenegger commented on KAFKA-9234:
--------------------------------------------
There are no standard Java {{@Nullable}}, {{@Nonnull}}, or {{@NotNull}}
annotations. We would need to add a dependency on something (Checker, Lombok,
JetBrains, …).
> Consider using @Nullable and @Nonnull annotations
