Thanks for the clarification, Ismael. Scala 2.11 is indeed removed in 2.5 Here is a passing build for the 2.5 branch https://builds.apache.org/job/kafka-2.5-jdk8/50/
Still waiting on a passing build for the system tests. Stay tuned. -David On Fri, Feb 28, 2020 at 11:21 PM Ismael Juma <ism...@juma.me.uk> wrote: > Thanks David!
