Thanks for the RC, David. I was able to successfully complete the following:
- Installed 3.2.1 RC3 and performed quickstart for broker and Connect (using Java 17) - Verified signatures and checksums - Verified the tag - Manually compared the release notes to JIRA - Build release archive from the tag, installed locally, and ran a portion of quickstart - Manually spotchecked the Javadocs and release notes linked above - The site docs at https://kafka.apache.org/32/documentation.html still reference the 3.2.0 version (as expected), but I verified that putting the contents of https://home.apache.org/~davidarthur/kafka-3.2.1-rc3/kafka_2.12-3.2.1-site-docs.tgz into the "32" directory of a local Apache server running https://github.com/apache/kafka-site, and the proper 3.2.1 version was referenced. So I'm +1 (binding) Best regards, Randall On Thu, Jul 21, 2022 at 8:15 PM David Arthur <davidart...@apache.org> wrote: > Hello Kafka users, developers and client-developers, > > This is the first release candidate of Apache Kafka 3.2.1. > > This is a bugfix release with several fixes since the release of 3.2.0.
