I don't think we need a KIP/vote here, this is just an internal refactoring. We had said previously and noted in the document that the KIPs were just for big new features or public api changes.
I am a big +1 on the idea. We'll have to be careful in the code review since it would really easy to cause subtle issues and it is hard to review this kind of change. For what it is worth the high-level idea of adding a bunch of helper code in org.apache.kafka.common is to start to incorporate this on the server and replace the utilities there. This will just help reduce the total code size. A few of the highlights there are: 1. Replace kafka.utils.Utils with o.a.k.common.utils.Utils. This will likely involve some thought and refactoring. Anything non-general purpose should move out of Utils entirely and anything that remains should be high quality, general purpose, and have some tests. We may want to keep a ScalaUtils with a couple of things that aren't really doable/convenient in Java. This should be straight-forward. 2. Refactor the network server to make use of the classes in o.a.k.common.network (receive, send, etc). It might be doable to make use of Selector as well. 3. Replace the request classes in kafka.api with the ones in o.a.k.common.requests. This is one of the more valuable things we can do as that will get us to having a single definition of the protocol. 4. Make use of the exceptions in o.a.k.common.errors 5. Switch over to the new metrics library. I'll file tickets for these. -Jay On Fri, Feb 6, 2015 at 11:16 AM, Joe Stein <joe.st...@stealth.ly> wrote: > I created KIP-12 > > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-12+change+broker+configuration+properties+to+be+consistent+with+the+rest+of+the+code > and linked it to this thread and the JIRA with the v1 patch.
