Mickael, we discovered a regression bug in Kafka Streams today that was introduced in the 2.6.0 release. It affects EOS users, what is a growing percentage of Kafka Streams users.
I marked it as critical for now, but would propose it as a blocker for 2.6.1. What do you think? Can we roll a new RC to include a fix in 2.6.1? A PR is already under review. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-10755 -Matthias On 11/12/20 4:17 PM, Mickael Maison wrote: > Hello Kafka users, developers and client-developers, > > This is the first candidate for release of Apache Kafka 2.6.1. > > Apache Kafka 2.6.1 is a bugfix release and fixes 35 issues since the > 2.6.0 release.
