@harshach @darionyaphet I don't think we're in a position to deprecate
storm-kafka yet for two reasons:
1. storm-kafka-client does not have feature parity with storm-kafka yet
(e.g. bolt, Trident support)
2. storm-kafka-client requires kafka 0.10.x. It will take some time for all
users to upgrade to that version.
