Concerning the `FlinkKafkaConsumer081` and `FlinkKafkaConsumer082` - lets
keep them exactly to fix bugs underneath the hood.
I would actually move all this from the `flink-connector-kafka-083`to the
other kafka connector project and replace the old `PersistentKafkaSource`.
In a sepaate patch, we should we add some convenience constructors, where
one can directly pass the list of brokers, rather than a properties object.
> Implement Kafka connector using the new Kafka Consumer API

> Key: FLINK-2386
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2386
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Kafka Connector
> Reporter: Robert Metzger
> Assignee: Robert Metzger
>
> Once Kafka has released its new consumer API, we should provide a connector
> for that version.
> The release will probably be called 0.9 or 0.8.3.
> The connector will be mostly compatible with Kafka 0.8.2.x, except for
> committing offsets to the broker (the new connector expects a coordinator to
> be available on Kafka). To work around that, we can provide a configuration
> option to commit offsets to zookeeper (managed by flink code).
> For 0.9/0.8.3 it will be fully compatible.
> It will not be compatible with 0.8.1 because of mismatching Kafka messages.
