Kafka 0.9 and spark-streaming-kafka_2.10

[Michel Hubert]

Hi,

I'm thinking of upgdrading our kafka cluster to 0.9.

Will this be a problem for the Spark Streaming + Kafka Direct Approach 
Integration using artifact spark-streaming-kafka_2.10 (1.6.1)?


groupId = org.apache.spark
artifactId = spark-streaming-kafka_2.10
version = 1.6.1


Because the documentation states:
Kafka: Spark Streaming 1.6.1 is compatible with Kafka 0.8.2.1.


Thanks.
