Scott you will have to do just one topic per input right now but multiple topics per group, whitelisting and blacklisting just got merged into jruby-kafka and I'm working them up the chain to my logstash-kafka and then pass it to the logstash-input/output/-kafka plugin.

Or do you need to create separate logstashes for each topic to parse? We are consuming multi-line logs from a service running on a bunch of different hosts, so we address that by creating single partition topics for our producers. We then want to have logstash consume them for ELK. Thanks in advance!
