Re: Jars in Kafka 0.10

This is a combination of Connect and Streams, and actually probably more
related to Connect because it pulls in a bunch of jars to implement its
REST API. You don't need all of them to run any of the individual
components, but they are currently bundled altogether in a way that is,
unfortunately, not easy to detangle. Note that you won't be including all
of these if you're using any of the client libraries via Maven dependencies
(which includes producer, consumer, or streams).
