Two things I want to confirm. Please advise.

1. Seems the KIP only cares about topic management things. Is there any plan 
for this KIP to merge the feature of what `GetOffsetShell` script offers? Since 
a lot of people really want to know/monitor how many committed records have 
been created for a topic.


2. Since deleting topic is a totally async process, is there any way for me to 
make sure the topic is deleted successfully after invoking deleteTopic once the 
KIP is implemented?


Regards,


-- huxi

主题: Re: [DISCUSS] KIP-117: Add a public AdministrativeClient API for Kafka 
admin operations

even assuming all consumers use kafka for offset storage, would it be
possible to get this information from a single broker without "reaching
out" to all brokers in a cluster?
