Hi, I was wondering whether 0.8.2 is on track for being released this month, as I haven’t read much about betas or release candidates in any of the kafka groups (although I haven’t been following the IRC)?
Although many of the new features targeted for 0.8.2, including topic deletion, the new producer client API and offset mgmt outside ZK would be great, we are primarily looking for scala 2.11.x support, and have an in-house build that we are currently managing, but would appreciate an update on the timing of the official road map. In case it is looking like stabilizing the new features might push the full 0.8.2 release out a while, an 0.8.1.2 build with just incremental scala 2.11.x support would be highly appreciated by many of us! https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1419 If it is going to be a while, we will likely do additional sustainment work with our internal Kafka 2.11 build and begin working with other dependencies as well (e.g. akka-kafka) - just trying to get all the information before making that investment on something that might have a short lifetime.
