Kafka Go Producer/Consumer

Note: SUPERSEDED by the segmentio/kafka-go implementation.

Uses : https://github.com/Shopify/sarama : https://github.com/wvanbergen/kafka (likely obsolete)

Prerequisites

1. Kafka running -- see docker-start-kafka directory for dev-docker startup.

2. Place an alias in /etc/hosts for 'broker' -> localhost. This is an artifact of how kafka is run. (The broker knows itself as 'broker', but port mapped through docker to listen on localhost.)
