Guozhang Wang commented on KAFKA-1634:
--------------------------------------

While working on this: should a retention time better be scaled at secs than 
ms? Do we have scenarios where people want to just retain their offsets for 
miliseconds? If not then we may end up always having very large number for this 
field.

> Improve semantics of timestamp in OffsetCommitRequests and update 
> documentation

> From the mailing list -
> following up on this -- I think the online API docs for OffsetCommitRequest
> still incorrectly refer to client-side timestamps:
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/A+Guide+To+The+Kafka+Protocol#AGuideToTheKafkaProtocol-OffsetCommitRequest
> Wasn't that removed and now always handled server-side now?  Would one of
> the devs mind updating the API spec wiki?
