@gerritsundaram looks like a findbugs warming. you might consider excluding
the generated code.
regarding whether using thrift or protobuf, can you raise a discussion
email thread for that?
> Provide a IDL definition for stream metadata and segment metadata

> Issue Type: New Feature

>
> Currently there is not stream metadata structure and log segment metadata is
> a customized string structure. it would be good to use any IDL like thrift,
> protobuf to store the metadata like what bookkeeper is doing.
> The reason to choose protobuf is
> - because bookkeeper is using protobuf, it is okay to use same stuff.
> - the thrift version that DL is using is a bit too old and hard to bump
> because it seems the version is customized for finagle. using protobuf is
> easier to support other language clients.
