hi Ismael The thread[0] contains a brief discussion about the one-year rule. I've also updated the KIP page[1] to highlight this rule. However, declaring [3.7-3.9] as API compatible with 4.0 can be unrelated to the one-year rule. We can do this for consistency, ensuring clients, Streams, and Connect have the same version range. Additionally, we can address this by reverting a minor commit. If we don't agree on consistency, we can update the KIP to include different API compatibility versions for Connect.
