Hi list, I was under the impression that consumers still needed to interact with zookeeper to track their offset. Going through recent Jiras to track the progress I see that https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1000 and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1012 seem to indicate that offset tracking is now supported by brokers.
Does this mean that pending support in client libraries, everything is good to go to part with the ZK dependency ? If so this is awesome news for the non-JVM world, I don't know how I missed it. I suppose this also means a pure-Java consumer lib should not be too far off, or is additional functionality needed ? Cheers, - pyr
