[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-2551) Unclean leader election docs outdated

Stevo Slavic created KAFKA-2551:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Unclean leader election docs outdated
                 Key: KAFKA-2551
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2551
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: website
    Affects Versions: 0.8.2.2
            Reporter: Stevo Slavic
            Priority: Trivial


Current unclean leader election docs state:
{quote}
In the future, we would like to make this configurable to better support use cases where downtime is preferable to inconsistency.
{quote}

Since 0.8.2.0, unclean leader election strategy (whether to allow it or not) is already configurable via {{unclean.leader.election.enable}} broker config property.

That sentence is in both https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/kafka/site/083/design.html and https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/kafka/site/082/design.html near the end of "Unclean leader election: What if they all die?" section. Next section, "Availability and Durability Guarantees", mentions ability to disable unclean leader election, so likely just this one reference needs to be updated.
