Hello Kafka users, developers and client-developers, This is the first candidate for release of Apache Kafka 3.3.1. This release fixes two issues with the 3.3.0 release.

The tests that failed don't fail consistently across all of the Java and Scala versions. System tests: I started a new build for this. I'll update the thread when I have a result on the system tests. Thanks, -José
