Hey Shone,
1) Failover: unfortunately it does not implement retries on failure.
However, it does prevent further loss on those partitions. If we hit
errors while sending to a partition, then we asynchronously fetch
metadata for that topic to determine if we should send to a new leader
for that par
Thanks for the heads up Joel. We would like to try if possible (we have
ambitious timelines currently). Couple of questions though:
- how robust would you consider the failover support in the current version
- is there support for compression (Snappy and Gzip)?
Thanks in advance!

Hey Shone,
Yes this been on my plate for some time but have not had enough time
to do the open-sourcing process. We implemented a producer, and hope
to release that in a few weeks. I'll send out an email to this list
when that happens.

A few months ago there were discussions around a C/C++ client for Kafka .80
using non-blocking socket I/O that was being worked on by LinkedIn and may
possibly be open sourced. Has there been any additional work towards the
c++ client and open sourcing it that anyone is aware of?
Thanks,
