Hello Kafka users, developers and client-developers, This is the second candidate for release of Apache Kafka 0.10.1.0. This is a minor release that includes great new features including throttled replication, secure quotas, time-based log searching, and queryable state for Kafka Streams. A full list of the content can be found here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Release+Plan+0.10.1.
One quick note on the docs. Because of all the recent improvements, the documentation is still a bit out of sync with what's visible on the Kafka homepage. This should be fixed soon (definitely before the release is finalized).
