Mark, The java/scala clients are complete. The non-java support is kind of weak at this point. In particular, Kafka has a thick client (lots of interaction with ZK during rebalance and committing offsets) in the consumer. This makes reimplementing the logic in each language hard, At this moment, the RB client only supports SimpleConsumer, not the high level consumer.
