I also wanted to note that 3.9.0-RC2 doesn't include David's fix for KAFKA-17193. Since that PR only affects our integration with Github Actions and not the Java or Scala source code of Kafka, I did not re-generate the release candidate tar.gz and/or tags after that fix was made.
Also, thanks David for fixing the github actions problem quickly! The other fixes that we discussed in the 3.9 branch thread should all be here. best, Colin On Thu, Oct 10, 2024, at 14:14, Colin McCabe wrote: > This is the second candidate for the release of Apache Kafka 3.9.0.
