[~ijuma] I understand.  Should I have filed an issue with Confluent instead, 
then?  If so, can you point me to an issue tracker for Confluent where I could 
file this?

Please provide an official Node.js client for Kafka at feature parity with all 
of the other officially supported & provided Kafka clients.

It is extremely confusing when it comes to trying to use Kafka in the Node.js 
ecosystem.  There are many clients, some look legitimate 
([http://kafka.js.org),|http://kafka.js.org%29%2C/] but some are woefully out 
of date (many listed at 
[https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Clients#Clients-Node.js]), 
and others have confusing relationships among them 
([https://github.com/nodefluent/node-sinek] & 
[https://github.com/nodefluent/kafka-streams]).  Most of them are publicly 
asking for help.  This leaves teams having to waste time trying to figure out 
which client has the Kafka features they need (mostly talking about streaming 
here), and which client has high quality and will be around in the future.  If 
the client came directly from this project, those decisions would be made and 
we could get on about our work.

JavaScript is on the of the most popular languages on the planet, and the 
Node.js user base is huge – big enough that a Node.js client provided directly 
by the Kafka team is justified.  The list at 
[https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Clients#Clients-Node.js] 
doesn't even mention what is perhaps the most confidence-inducing Node.js 
client thanks to its documentation, 
[https://kafka.js.org.|https://kafka.js.org./]  The list at 
[https://docs.confluent.io/current/clients/index.html#ak-clients] includes an 
officially-supported Go language client; Go's community is dwarfed by that of 
Node.js.
