while we're at it... I noticed the following typos in section 4.1 Motivation ( http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#majordesignelements)
"we knew" instead of "we new" ---- Finally in cases where the stream is fed into other data systems for serving we new the system would have to be able to guarantee fault-tolerance in the presence of machine failures. ---- "led us" instead of "led use" ---- Supporting these uses led use to a design with a number of unique elements, more akin to a database log then a traditional messaging system. We will outline some elements of the design in the following sections. On Fri, Nov 29, 2013 at 11:25 AM, Joe Stein <joe.st...@stealth.ly> wrote: > Thanks Dan, nice catch.
