Hi, This is the sixth candidate for the first incubator release for Apache Kafka, version 0.7.0-incubating. There were a few binary distribution related concerns in the last RC. This candidate is published to fix those, and include all dependent jars, except those in boot and test.
It also fixes the following issues: http://people.apache.org/~nehanarkhede/kafka-0.7.0-incubating-candidate-6/RELEASE-NOTES.html *** Please download, test and vote by Nov 11th, noon Note that we are voting upon the source (revision), binaries are provided for convenience.
