Hi all, I was watching the Java Highlights of 2023 from Nicolai Parlog[1] and it became clear that many projects are moving to Java 17 for its developer productivity improvements. It occurred to me that there is also an opportunity for the Apache Kafka project and I wrote a quick KIP with the proposal. Please take a look and let me know what you think:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=284789510 P.S. I am aware that we're past the KIP freeze for Apache Kafka 3.7, but the proposed change would only change documentation and it's strictly better to share this information in 3.7 than 3.8 (if we decide to do it).
