[~gwenshap] Ah I forgot that patch. Thanks for letting me know.
> Documentation for retention.ms is confusing
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-2751
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2751
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.8.2.1
> Reporter: Craig W
> Assignee: Dong Lin
> Priority: Minor
>
> The documentation for the "retention.ms" setting is a little confusing. When
> looking at the documentation the property is in the first column, while the
> default server property is in the 3rd column which is named
> "log.retention.minutes". The description for the property doesn't describe
> the expected value, so it leads one to believe maybe "retention.ms" is meant
> to be minutes.
> I'd like to see the description for the property explicitly mention that the
> value at the topic level is milliseconds, where as it's minutes for the
> server level.
