This looks really useful. What can I do to help move this forward?

Nice, but, what's the point in having two Kafka spout implementations? This fork https://github.com/wurstmeister/storm-kafka-0.8-plus/ has been working fine for a long time.
The objective wasn't to provide a second implementation. In all honesty, I wasn't aware of that fork's existence. Adding support for 0.8 was fairly trivial and I felt it would be convenient for others to be able to acquire it from storm-contrib.
It appears Storm-Kafka 0.8 Plus provides an almost identical implementation but with better Kafka feature support and is more actively maintained. Closing in favor of this fork.
I read a post by a Storm developer (@ptgoetz?) on the mailing list stating that storm-kafka-0.8-plus is the Kafka spout implementation that will be included in future official Apache Storm releases, so my reasoning is that it's better to focus on that implementation. But thanks anyway!
Updates have been verified to work with Kafka 0.8 and Storm 0.9.0.1
