Hello! Thank you everyone for carrying out checks and pointing out misses on my side!
I have opened 2 PRs against the asf-site repository: One contains the Javadocs as per RC1 - https://github.com/apache/kafka-site/pull/718 The other contains the site-docs as per RC1 - https://github.com/apache/kafka-site/pull/719 I noticed that on the site-docs there is a big diff generated for the protocol_messages.html, but on a spot-check these changes are part of Kafka since the 4.0.0 release. Happy to correct any deficiencies on my side if I am overlooking something obvious. Thanks once again for all the help!
