Another JIRA that will be nice to include as part of 0.8.2-beta is https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1481 that fixes the mbean naming. Looking for people's thoughts on 2 things here -
1. How do folks feel about doing a 0.8.2-beta release right now and 0.8.2 final 4-5 weeks later? 2. Do people want to include any JIRAs (other than the ones mentioned above) in 0.8.2-beta? If so, it will be great to know now so it will allow us to move forward with the beta release quickly.
