Hi, As of this week, we closed 2 big jiras: kafka-46 (commit thread) and kafka-348 (merge from trunk). Basic replication (without failure) is working now.
We have people signed up on the following jiras: KAFKA-336: Admin RPC between controller and broker KAFKA-335: Embedded controller KAFKA-329: Create topic support (revisit based on v3 design) Those jiras are blocking a bunch of other jiras and we'd like to close them in a week or so. In the meantime, the following jiras can still be worked on more or less independently and we welcome contribution from the community. KAFKA-288: rework java producer API KAFKA-289: reuse TopicData when sending produce request KAFKA-354: refactor setter/getter in scala style KAFKA-356: create a generic thread class Thanks, Jun
