Hello All,

I use to maintain confluent-platform homebrew formula for some time (previously confluent-oss)

Now that the CLI part of the platform is a separate project, I'm not quite sure about the implications of LICENSE and such. For example, since the CLI is released only as a binary it's not possible for me to make it part of homebrew-core as a new formula `confluent-cli`. Homebrew doesn't allow binaries in the core repo. The solution is to create a home brew tap. 

Didn't see any LICENSE associated with confluent cli download. Can anyone from Confluent comment on this. Is it ok to distribute CLI via a homebrew tap?

P.S Mac users will benefit a lot if confluent could package the CLI and the platform as a brew formula. Can help maintaining it. 

Best Wishes
Avi

Hi Avi, 

Thanks for bringing this up (and thanks for all your work with homebrew previously). Let me pass this on internally and see what I can find out. 

thanks, Robin.
