Repository: kafka
Updated Branches:

MINOR: Clean up of ProducerConfig documentation, including correction for block.on.buffer.full

default value is "false" and not "true"

See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35578519/kafka-block-on-buffer-full-default-value
and https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/d5b43b19bb06e9cdc606312c8bcf87ed267daf44/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/clients/producer/ProducerConfig.java#L232

Author: mjsax <mj...@apache.org>

Reviewers: Ismael Juma <is...@juma.me.uk>, Grant Henke <gr...@gmail.com>, Ewen Cheslack-Postava <ew...@confluent.io>

Closes #954 from mjsax/hotfix-docu
