Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-461: --------------------------------- I think the message format hasn't changed. Technically what we should do is change the request ids, but I think we decided not just to kind of "start fresh". Basically I don't think this would help since an old client can't make requests it won't be able to get any messages anyway. > remove support for format for magic byte 0 in 0.8 > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-461 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-461 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: core > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Reporter: Jun Rao > Labels: bugs > Original Estimate: 72h > Remaining Estimate: 72h > > Since 0.8 is a non-backward compatible release, should we remove the support > for magic byte 0 in Message and support only magic byte 1? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
