Re: [DISCUSS] KIP-170: Enhanced TopicCreatePolicy and introduction of TopicDeletePolicy
Hi Edoardo,
Do you intend to update the KIP to avoid the introduction of another
interface?

Edoardo, thanks for the KIP. I think it's a good idea overall.
+1 especially for including Session/Principal in the API. (#2 mentioned by
Ismael)
Also, the AlterPolicy should get the same info as create + delete (#4).
Cheers,
Roger

Hi Tom,
Maybe we can discuss that as part of KIP-179. I don't think we should
introduce a separate interface for the changes suggested here.

Re: [DISCUSS] KIP-170: Enhanced TopicCreatePolicy and introduction of TopicDeletePolicy
Posted by Tom Bentley <t....@gmail.com>.
Hi Edoardo,
KIP-179 will support changing topic configurations via the AdminClient and
this would open a loophole to avoid the current CreateTopicPolicy:
1. Create a topic that sticks to the policy
2. Modify the topic after creation to something which would have violated
the policy.
For this reason KIP-179 proposes to apply the create topic policy to topic
modification too. If there were going to be a new "V2" interface (as
opposed to changing the RequestMetadata) I think it would be beneficial if
the name reflected that it applied to updates too.
CreateOrAlterTopicPolicy? Though obviously that name doesn't reflect that
its heritage in the original CreateTopicPolicy.
Cheers,
Tom
