Github user hsun-cnnxty commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/705#issuecomment-140633818 Erik, I added 2 reference links in the description with more information on "Kafka's consumer offset management api". As of migration from existing offsets stored in ZK to Kafka, it could be done with a simple migration utility similar to the tools provided by Kafka (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/System+Tools). Question is where it belongs to in Storm codebase. -thanks
