Updated Kafka Roadmap?
Howdy,
I was wondering if it would be possible to update the release plan:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Future+release+plan
aligned with the feature roadmap:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Index
We have several active projects actively and planning to use Kafka, and any current guidance on the new releases related to ZK dependence, producer and consumer API/client timing would be very helpful. For example, is 0.8.2 possible in August, or is September likely?
Also, any chance something like:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Idempotent+Producer
…might make it into 0.9?
Thanks!

I too could benefit from an updated roadmap.
We're in a similar situation where some components in our stream processing
stack could use an overhaul, but I'm waiting for the offset API to be fully
realized before doing any meaningful planning.

Hey Jonathan, I just sent an email on the dev list to discuss this.
Not to be double effort but for posterity and good thread communication if
you can voice your opinion there it would be great (please)
I would volunteer to release 0.8.1.2, not a problem.
My concern with 0.8.2 is with any new release are corner cases and some
features (like KAFKA-1419) are important enough for dot release. The
source jar in maven too!
The community needs to speak up if they want this!

Hi,
I was wondering whether 0.8.2 is on track for being released this month, as I haven’t read much about betas or release candidates in any of the kafka groups (although I haven’t been following the IRC)?
Although many of the new features targeted for 0.8.2, including topic deletion, the new producer client API and offset mgmt outside ZK would be great, we are primarily looking for scala 2.11.x support, and have an in-house build that we are currently managing, but would appreciate an update on the timing of the official road map.
In case it is looking like stabilizing the new features might push the full 0.8.2 release out a while, an 0.8.1.2 build with just incremental scala 2.11.x support would be highly appreciated by many of us!
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1419
If it is going to be a while, we will likely do additional sustainment work with our internal Kafka 2.11 build and begin working with other dependencies as well (e.g. akka-kafka) - just trying to get all the information before making that investment on something that might have a short lifetime.
Best Regards,
-Jonathan

I just updated the wiki with some rough timelines.
