I had initially made this to be a generic Header and Footer record, but then scoped it to metadata. I did not know we had the intention of expanding the snapshot concept to other topics. (IIUC snapshots would only work on topics that are delta logged, and no other topics work that way today). But if we will do that, then I agree with you. I guess my only counter question would be that given today the metadata topic is kind of special, do you envision the metadata snapshot schema evolving different (richer in information) from other snapshot-able topics, such that it might need it's own header/footer? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
