[GitHub] metamodel issue #178: A new module for Apache Kafka "querying" using MetaMod...

Github user kaspersorensen commented on the issue:

    https://github.com/apache/metamodel/pull/178
  
    I like that idea myself. I notice that many projects (such as Hadoop, Kafka, Guava, Spark) have a `@InterfaceStability` annotation. We could do the same as them and mark this one as "Evolving" or so.
    
    Taking that idea a step further ... We might even want to consider annotating all our DataContexts with some informational annotations to let people know about the Query characteristics which we currently just [capture in the wiki](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/METAMODEL/Query+execution+strategies). Then we could certainly tag classes like this with some annotations that would explain how the SQL analogy is constrained to more or less a subset of meaningful queries.
    
    I would definately volunteer to doing that work. But does that then mean we merge this PR, or do you think it needs to be further considered?
