2.0.3

New dependency requirements for logstash-core for the 5.0 release

3.0.0.beta1

Note: breaking changes in this version, and not backward compatible with Kafka 0.8 broker. Please read carefully before installing
Breaking: Changed default codec from json to plain. Json codec is really slow when used with inputs because inputs by default are single threaded. This makes it a bad first user experience. Plain codec is a much better default.
Moved internal APIs to use Kafka's Java API directly instead of jruby-kafka. This makes it consistent with logstash-input-kafka
Breaking: Change in configuration options
Added SSL options so you can connect securely to a 0.9 Kafka broker

2.0.2

[Internal] Pin jruby-kafka to v1.5

2.0.0

Plugins were updated to follow the new shutdown semantic, this mainly allows Logstash to instruct input plugins to terminate gracefully, instead of using Thread.raise on the plugins' threads. Ref: elastic/logstash#3895
Dependency on logstash-core update to 2.0

## 2.0.0.beta.1

Change to 0.8.2 version of Kafka producer. This will unfortunately break existing configuration, but has a lot of enhancements and fixes.
