Willem Jiang commented on CAMEL-8754:
-------------------------------------
OK, the example just shows a way to send messages of Avro type to Kafka.
As we have camel-avro data format, we can consider sending the more generic
message to Kafka by default.
> camel-kafka prevents sending anything other than String
