> > This is a non-backward compatible change. I think that we should do this change to cleanup the record. As KIP-848 is only in early access in 3.7 and that we clearly state that we don't plane to support upgrade from it, this is acceptable in my opinion. > > Are we gating this record change under anything? There is no gating at all for the records at the moment besides the static configuration to enable the protocol. We will introduce the proper gating based on the new feature version for 3.8. With those changes, we will clearly break the backward compatibility but, as you said, we said that upgrades won't be supported from the EA. I actually thought hard about no doing this but I think that it is preferable to do it in order to not carry on bad record format from the start. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
