Jon Zeolla updated METRON-348:
------------------------------
    Description: 
Metron's 
[bro-plugin-kafka](https://github.com/apache/incubator-metron/tree/master/metron-sensors/bro-plugin-kafka)
 is missing an [important 
update](https://github.com/bro/bro-plugins/commit/b9f1f35415cb0db065348da0a5043a8353b4a0a8).

In this ticket I will merge the public bro/bro-plugins changes in with the 
recent local kerberos changes to the kafka plugin (METRON-812), and also fix 
the issue with non-thread safe errors.  This should get the bro package in a 
state where it can be directly migrated to be a bro package, and we can migrate 
away from using bro/bro-plugins and our local 
[bro-plugin-kafka](https://github.com/apache/incubator-metron/tree/master/metron-sensors/bro-plugin-kafka)
 code.

Metron's bro-plugin-kafka 
(https://github.com/apache/incubator-metron/tree/master/metron-sensors/bro-plugin-kafka)
 is missing an important update 
(https://github.com/bro/bro-plugins/commit/b9f1f35415cb0db065348da0a5043a8353b4a0a8).
  I have opened a ticket with the bro devs in order to seek a long term 
resolution to this issue (https://github.com/bro/bro-plugins/issues/31).  

My suggestion was to have the bro team update the bro/bro-plugins repo to turn 
folders (plugins) into individual branches so that they could be referenced and 
updated easily in Metron and other projects as a submodule.  I was going to 
wait to hear back before filing a PR, but I'm not against a short term fix of 
simply updating kafka/src/KafkaWriter.cc and kafka/src/KafkaWriter.h.
