I'm aware of RocketMQ, just meant that we have unmanaged modules nowadays
in Storm repo. since many of us are focusing core, and some of us are making
Kafka connector possible to be maintained as first class support.
IMHO, I don't really want to pay maintaining cost to unmanaged modules. I
don't think connectors are served as first class support which have less than 2
`active` committer sponsors or at least 1 `active` committer sponsor and 1
`active` contributor (in this case committer sponsor couldn't craft pull
requests as he/she may not get binding +1 like this case), and they are better
to be maintained outside of Storm core. But the opinion is on my own, and some
other committers/PMCs might take a look at.
