I'm excited about Kafka but want to be sure it is ready (or will be soon) for a critical data pipeline.
What are the showstoppers, if any? eg. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-156 mentioned here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12130481/is-kafka-ready-for-production-use/12764663#12764663 I've looked at this list: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Powered+By Comments?
