Github user Lewuathe commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/338#issuecomment-67581406 @harshach Sorry, I cannot figure out what you mean. Why does storing offset info to zookeeper path break checking topic existence with `/topics`? User can access zookeeper path at will, but this does not delete specific path in zookeeper doesn't it? Overall I think we agreed KafkaSpout shouldn't depend on kafka internal in zookeeper. All parts which uses curator or zookeeper api will be replaced.
