Hey Harsha,

We're just trying to understand the problem first. I think what you're
saying is that the KafkaSpout has been compiled against the 0.9 client, but
it may need to be to run against 0.10 (if the user depends on that version
instead). Is that correct? In general, are you expecting that KafkaSpout
will work with any kafka-clients greater than 0.9? Another question that
comes to mind is whether we would also need to revert to the old versions
of subscribe() and assign(). The argument type was changed from List to
Collection, which is not binary compatible, right?

Thanks,
Jason
