Hey all, I would like to propose a KIP for Apache Kafka Connect which adds validation support for SMT-related configuration options:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-802%3A+Validation+Support+for+Kafka+Connect+SMT+Options This feature allows users to make sure an SMT is configured correctly before actually putting a connector with that SMT in place. Any feedback, comments, and suggestions around this proposal will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, --Gunnar
