Description

I just begin to study flume through https://flume.apache.org/FlumeUserGuide.html, and find one mistake.

This is a Flume Sink implementation that can publish data to a Kafka topic. One of the objective is to integrate Flume with Kafka so that pull based processing systems can process the data coming through various Flume sources. This currently supports Kafka 0.9.x series of releases.

This information is not accurate, 0.9.x and higher version support Kafka Sink. or it will misguide beginner.
