Thanks for all your valuable feedbacks. Regarding to security issues for alpha features: I completely agree with Larry: ideally, all alpha features should be disabled by default.
Steve/Arun/Haibo: could you please comment about feature's rough merge plan and status (like alpha/beta). I will wait several days to see if there are any other features wanted to be added to 3.1 before creating initial release scope/plan on confluent.
