That helped :) I also had to add Log4J and Metrics, but I was then able to send a message to the broker.
I'm revealing my Maven ignorance, but I'm unclear why I needed to add transitive dependencies. Also, since I will be writing Scala 2.10 as well as Java, I presume I will need the com.sksamuel.kafka<http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Cg%3A%22com.sksamuel.kafka%22> artifact. Thanks. I look forward to trying the official 0.8 release.
