Hi all,

I have updated the KIP-176 
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-176%3A+Remove+deprecated+new-consumer+option+for+tools>
 in order to consider to remove the --new-consumer option not only for 
ConsoleConsumer but even for other tools which use it : ConsumerPerformance and 
ConsumerGroupCommand.

I'm also working on a PR for a new-consumer option deprecation as first step 
for ConsumerPerformance and ConsumerGroupCommand (as already done, pushing a 
PR<https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/3537>, for ConsoleConsumer).


Thanks,

Paolo

You can omit "--new-consumer" since 0.10.2. Paolo's PR will add the warning
so that we can eventually remove the switch altogether. To be honest, we
could just remove it at the same time as we remove the old consumer.
