Re: [DISCUSS] KIP-374: Add '--help' option to all available Kafka CLI commands

Hi Dongjin,

I have identified most of the code changes for this task. I can raise a
GitHub PR if community think this is a good to have feature in Kafka.

Should I start working on it?

Hi Srinivas,

Thanks for the KIP.

+1 for adding a --help option to all commands that don't already have it.

If everyone agrees, then maybe you can call a vote on this KIP.  Once the KIP is accepted, then we can accept the corresponding PR.  I know it seems a bit heavyweight, but we prefer to be conservative when changing public command line interfaces.

best,
Colin
