The storm-kafka-client document explains these two values just almost the same except the last word.
https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/master/docs/storm-kafka-client.md - UNCOMMITTED_EARLIEST (DEFAULT) means that the kafka spout polls records from the last committed offset, if any. If no offset has been committed, it behaves as EARLIEST. - UNCOMMITTED_LATEST means that the kafka spout polls records from the last committed offset, if any. If no offset has been committed, it behaves as LATEST. Or is that a mistake? -- Thanks Zhechao Ma
