Sorry for the delay, but this finally made it back to the top of my review queue. I'm not sure we necessarily need to do something here. Starting Connect from scratch when not enough brokers are running must be a pretty rare scenario (maybe more common when developing). Connect has no idea when, or even if, enough brokers will join the cluster so it's hard to decide whether to keep retrying to just stop and let the environment (for example k8s) handle the restarts. If you definitively want Connect to do some retries, maybe we could retry for `default.api.timeout.ms`. I typically find setting a bound as a duration more intuitive than setting a number of retries. Also having separate retries settings for each topic may be a bit overkill :) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
