Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-238:
-------------------------------

The patch doesn't apply to the 0.8 branch. Could you rebase?

can't find file to patch at input line 2260
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

> We need a way to propagate the leader and the partition information to the 
> producer so that it can do load balancing and semantic partitioning. One way 
> to do that is to have the producer get the information from ZK directly. This 
> means that the producer needs to maintain a ZK session and has to subscribe 
> to watchers, which can be complicated. An alternative approach is to have the 
> following api on the broker.
> TopicMetaData getTopicMetaData(String: topic)
> TopicMetaData {
>   Array[PartitionMetaData]: partitionsMetaData
> }
> PartitionMetaData {
>   Int: partitionId
>   String: leaderHostname
>   Int: leaderPort
> }
> Using this api, the producer can get the metadata about a topic during 
> initial startup or leadership change of a partition.
