I can confirm from Cloudera’s perspective that Kite is abandoned.

+1 to removing and I think we’re heading towards a Flume 2.0 at this point. We

Given that the Kite Dataset Sink is documented as being experimental and since 
Kite appears to have been abandoned I am making the decisions to remove the
