There is a ticket for the 2.8.0 POM issue (I would send the link to it but JIRA seems to be down so don't know the ticket off the top of my head).
The binary releases are only done using 2.8.0 but that really shouldn't matter since that is just the broker and your producers and consumers are communicating over the wire protocol using TCP/IP to it (so you can run whatever client you want with whatever language available and version of the language). There have been talks about changing (using another Scala version to build the broker) but this will be more of a consensus for operating the broker in production with that Scala version and having confidence around that from use. I haven't looked into the 2.8.0 POM issue yet myself it could be code related or even part of the publishing process that bonked at some point (it happens). Have you tried doing a publish-local to see if that works? I was honestly not aware folks still used 2.8.0 and there have been talks about discontinuing that. Why do you need the 2.8.0 client jar but a 2.10 broker? Lastly if it becomes such a big issue for the community and a fix is required before we can get trunk released we could always role 0.8.1 from branch and make the trunk 0.8.2 however we should go through some due diligence since 0.8.1 is not really that far off and the trade off may not make sense. /******************************************* Joe Stein Founder, Principal Consultant Big Data Open Source Security LLC http://www.stealth.ly Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> ********************************************/ On Wed, Dec 4, 2013 at 4:48 PM, hsy...@gmail.com <hsy...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi All, I was trying to upgrade the kafka to 0.8 but I get an empty jar > file for > <dependency> > <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId> > <artifactId>kafka_2.8.0</artifactId> > <version>0.8.0</version> > </dependency> > > > However > <dependency> > <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId> > <artifactId>kafka_2.8.2</artifactId> > <version>0.8.0</version> > </dependency> > > is good for me. > > BTW from the download page I can only see kafka_2.8.0_0.8.0.
