@markap14. I completely agree that is the best approach for handling
text-based payloads into and out of Pulsar, and am starting to work on the
record based processors now. However, I do see a need for keeping the non
record based processors around to handle non-text payloads, such as image
files, audio files, scientific data, etc. ---
