Consumer backwards compatibility

I have a 0.9.0 version of the Kafka consumer. Would that work against the
0.8.2 broker?

When porting an existing consumer group from 0.8.2 to 0.9 (clients and
brokers), is there any impact on the last committed offsets?
is the "native offset storage" feature enable by default?

The new Java consumer in 0.9.0 will not work with 0.8.2 since it depends on
the group management protocol built into Kafka, but the older consumer
should still work.
