Hi Randall One question: Do we mention all KIPs/NewFeatures in the blog that are listed in the release notes document - https://home.apache.org/~rhauch/kafka-2.6.0-rc2/RELEASE_NOTES.html ?
I see that [KAFKA-8890 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8890>] - KIP-519: Make SSL context/engine configuration extensible is missing from the google doc that you shared.
