Thanks Yash! This is very useful for migrating connectors from one cluster to another.
I had the following comments/questions 1. Is the offset read using `GET /offsets` api always guaranteed to be in a format accepted by `PATCH /offsets` ? 2. I had to tackle a similar migration situation but the two connect clusters in question were using the same backing Kafka cluster. The challenge in this case is that when I delete the original connector, I want to retain offsets and config topics. Do you think we should support deletion of a connector without removal of these topics as part of this KIP ? 3. In the case of a downgrade, how will Connect worker handle the optional “state” field in config topic ?
