This is the first candidate for release of Apache Kafka 0.9.0.0. This a major release that includes (1) authentication (through SSL and SASL) and authorization, (2) a new java consumer, (3) a Kafka connect framework for data ingestion and egression, and (4) quotas. Since this is a major release, we will give people a bit more time for trying this out.

Jun, not sure if this is just because of the RC vs being published on the site, but the links in the release notes aren't pointing to issues.apache.org. They're relative URLs instead of absolute.

I'm getting an error with gradle when using the source artifact because it seems to be expecting a git repository here:

        line 68 of build.gradle: def repo = Grgit.open(project.file('.'))

and I get this message:
        FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

        * Where:
        Build file 'kafka-0.9.0.0-src/build.gradle' line: 68

        * What went wrong:
        A problem occurred evaluating root project 'kafka-0.9.0.0-src'.

The definitions for rat make sense when working on a git branch, but not for the release artifact. One
way around this is to disable rat by commenting out the corresponding lines, but that isn't what the
README file says. I'd rather have an RC that fixes this issue by possibly disabling rat altogether.

Ewen,

Thanks for reporting that. Will fix that in RC2.

BTW. I created a Jenkins job for the 0.9 branch:
https://builds.apache.org/job/kafka_0.9.0_jdk7/

Right now its pretty much identical to trunk, but since they may diverge, I
figured we want to keep an eye on the branch separately.
