Ewen Cheslack-Postava commented on KAFKA-2374:
----------------------------------------------
@gwenshap Was looking through the Copycat checklist to see if there's anything
already implemented since the patches may not always align with how I
originally broke down the JIRAs. This one is an interesting case -- we have the
barebones file connector and we're using it for tests. Do we want to keep this
very simple as an example and consider this done? Or should we extend it to be
more complete (e.g. handling cases like overwriting files rather than appending
to them)? And as you're list above points out, there's a *lot* that could go
into a really generic file handling connector. Alternatively, a more complete
log handling connector could be provided as a separate plugin, as with most
other connectors.

> Two key features it should ideally support: support multiple files and
> rolling log files.
