Hi all,

We found a blocker in 3.8.0-rc1
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-17150 that is now merged to
trunk and backported to 3.8.
Additionally I've merged and backported the lower-severity
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-17148 to trunk, 3.8, and 3.7
because Dmitry Werner provided a very prompt fix.
Thanks to Chia-Ping, Chris, and Josep for prompt reviews. At this time I am
not aware of any more blockers for 3.8.0 and we can proceed with rc2.

Thanks!
Greg
