Congratulations, great release!

 The Apache Kafka community is pleased to announce the general availability
 release of Apache Kafka 0.8.1.

 The 0.8.1 release introduces log compaction
 http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#compaction and a move to
 Gradle for builds.
 Other changes in this release:
 https://archive.apache.org/dist/kafka/0.8.1/RELEASE_NOTES.html.

 Apache Kafka is high-throughput, publish-subscribe messaging system
 rethought of as a distributed commit log.

 ** Fast = A single Kafka broker can handle hundreds of megabytes of reads
 and
 writes per second from thousands of clients.

 ** Scalable = Kafka is designed to allow a single cluster to serve as the
 central data backbone
 for a large organization. It can be elastically and transparently expanded
 without downtime.
 Data streams are partitioned and spread over a cluster of machines to
 allow data streams
 larger than the capability of any single machine and to allow clusters of
 co-ordinated consumers.

 ** Durable = Messages are persisted on disk and replicated within the
 cluster to prevent
 data loss. Each broker can handle terabytes of messages without
 performance impact.

 ** Distributed by Design = Kafka has a modern cluster-centric design that
 offers
 strong durability and fault-tolerance guarantees.

 You can download the release from: http://kafka.apache.org/downloads.html

 We welcome your help and feedback. For more information on how to
 report problems, and to get involved, visit the project website at

Hash: SHA1

Many thanks to everyone involved in the release!

Please let me share two comments:

One, there's a typo on the Downloads page [1] for the text of the
source download link:  It incorrectly says kafka-0.8.0-src.tgz
instead of kafka-0.8.1-src.tgz.  (the hyperlink target/href is
correct though)

Two, this release is the first time that the project provides binary
downloads for Scala versions other than 2.8.0.  Wouldn't it make sense
to add a short note which of the binary versions (Scala 2.8.0, 2.8.2,
2.9.1, 2.9.2, 2.10) is the recommended version, and also why?

Right now I assume that the 2.8.0 version is still recommended one
(and still used in production at LinkedIn)?

Again, many thanks for the release!
Michael

That is a good point Michael. It looks like Joe fixed the typo. I added an
