>
> enhance KafkaIO to work with Kafka client 0.9 and 0.10, (maybe 0.8 as well
> ?),
> 1). to fully leverage new features in each version, like external
> authentication, timestamp in 0.10;
> 2). hide kafka API changed, to support steamless switch between different
> cluster versions;
> Scope of change:
> 1). add an abstract API for Kafka Consumer in existing KafkaIO. By default
> it's kafka 0.9 to keep compatible, with an option for extension;
> 2). Wrapped API for Kafka 0.10, with Kafka message timestamp support;
> 3). wrapped API for Kafka 0.8 (TBD);
