Github user ksakellis commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/11672#issuecomment-195850156 I would also like to see the Kafka modules removed in a similar way. We have had trouble balancing Spark's compatibility requirements and Kafka's every breaking client APIs. By having this clean separation, it makes it easier for user applications to just declare which Kafka client version they want to use.
