Hi, I hope you treat this with appropriate urgency. A while back, I raised pull request which was simply a patch for Windows OS. The pull request can be found here:
https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/3838/ Even though test failure markers are there, those aren't relevant to my commit. And as some folks commented, the patch doesn't affect anything in a major way. I would request that someone review this once because we have successfully completed our PoC and want to go live with a farm of 200 Windows Server 2016 (Core OS) where a farm of 9 message brokers will be configured with kafka. It is really important that we get a clear communication whether this patch will ever be accepted. Otherwise, we have to risk customising client jar for our own case and keep maintaining it for each kafka release we upgrade to. We don't have an immediate plan to migrate to Linux, so it's my sincere request again to senior folks for a review. Regards,
