Hi all, Thanks for the KIP!
Sorry, I haven't really followed the previous conversation but I took a quick look at this one. DJ01: I don't clearly understand the flow with the ConsumerGroupHeartbeat API after reading the KIP. There is a new boolean; the KIP states that partition ages are returned only when this boolean is set. Implicitly, this means that when the consumer receives a new partition, it will issue a new HB request with the boolean set to receive the ages. Is my understanding correct? We should perhaps clarify the flow and also explain how it fits into the existing flow (e.g. list offsets, fetch offsets, etc.). DJ02: It my understanding is correct, I wonder if the ConsumerGroupHeartbeat API is the right place for this given that a new round trip is done anyway. Alternatively, it could simply include the metadata. Generally, we should be rather cautious about not overloading the ConsumerGroupHeartbeat API with unrelated concepts. The API is a control plane API for assigning or revoking partitions. The fact that we don't want to add it to the corresponding Streams API also suggests something is not quite right. What would we do if we want to support Streams in the future?
