Bharat Viswanadham commented on KAFKA-5229:
-------------------------------------------
Moved to major, as first time users might feel this is a issue.
And also the stack trace is shown on the user screen, which will not be good.

> We use Reflections to scan the classpath for available plugins (connectors, converters, transformations), but when doing so Reflections tends to generate a lot of log noise like this:

> Despite being benign, these warnings worry users, especially first time users.
> We should either a) see if we can get Reflections to turn off these specific warnings via some config or b) make Reflections only log at > WARN by default in our log4j config. (b) is probably safe since we should only be seeing these at startup and I don't think I've seen any actual issue logged at WARN.
