> RocksDB 5.5.5+ seems to be legally acceptable. For more info see
> - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-303 and
> - https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-x
> Even latest trunk of Apache Kafka depends on older RocksDB https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/gradle/dependencies.gradle#L67
> If I'm not mistaken, this makes all current Apache Kafka 0.10+ releases not legally acceptable Apache products.
> Please consider upgrading the dependency. If possible please include the change in Apache Kafka 1.0.0 release, if not also in patch releases of older still supported 0.x Apache Kafka branches.
