Re: [DISCUSS] KIP-106 - Change Default unclean.leader.election.enabled from True to False

[Ian Wrigley]

+1 from me too. When I talk to people in training classes, who are typically 
much newer to Kafka, they tend to be surprised (and scared/horrified) that the 
default is true. Much safer to set it to false and let people change it when 
they really understand the tradeoffs.
