Hi Guozhang, +1 for Ubuntu and Mac: successfully built jars and tested quickstarts with this RC (using Java 8).
-1 for Windows: because of KAFKA-6075 and KAFKA-6100. To me these two issues (which have simple workarounds) sound like "blockers" - unless Kafka does not officially support Windows. Thanks. --Vahid From: Guozhang Wang <wangg...@gmail.com> To: "d...@kafka.apache.org" <d...@kafka.apache.org>, "users@kafka.apache.org" <users@kafka.apache.org>, kafka-clients <kafka-clie...@googlegroups.com> Date: 10/23/2017 06:01 PM Subject: [VOTE] 1.0.0 RC3 Hello Kafka users, developers and client-developers, This is the third candidate for release of Apache Kafka 1.0.0. The main PRs that gets merged in after RC1 are the following: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_apache_kafka_commit_dc6bfa553e73ffccd1e604963e076c&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=gFHxZDDyvXlxWKAopousiqwYxn6CC1VCaN6vNljV0Jg&e= 78d8ddcd69 It's worth noting that starting in this version we are using a different version protocol with three digits: *major.minor.bug-fix* Any and all testing is welcome, but the following areas are worth highlighting: 1. Client developers should verify that their clients can produce/consume to/from 1.0.0 brokers (ideally with compressed and uncompressed data). 2. Performance and stress testing. Heroku and LinkedIn have helped with this in the past (and issues have been found and fixed). 3. End users can verify that their apps work correctly with the new release. This is a major version release of Apache Kafka. It includes 29 new KIPs.

A few feature highlights: * Java 9 support with significantly faster TLS and CRC32C implementations * JBOD improvements: disk failure only disables failed disk but not the broker (KIP-112/KIP-113 part I) * Controller improvements: reduced logging change to greatly accelerate admin request handling. * Newly added metrics across all the modules (KIP-164, KIP-168, KIP-187, KIP-188, KIP-196) * Kafka Streams API improvements (KIP-120 / 130 / 138 / 150 / 160 / 161), and drop compatibility "Evolving" annotations Release notes for the 1.0.0 release: *https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__home.apache.org_-7Eguozhang_kafka-2D1.0.0-2Drc3_RELEASE-5FNOTES.html&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=w97ukcWA-on6o_E7Z-cXqTpDkRrXueAbdPXFDGR7iuE&e= < https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__home.apache.org_-7Eguozhang_kafka-2D1.0.0-2Drc3_RELEASE-5FNOTES.html&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=w97ukcWA-on6o_E7Z-cXqTpDkRrXueAbdPXFDGR7iuE&e= >* *** Please download, test and vote by Friday, October 20, 8pm PT Kafka's KEYS file containing PGP keys we use to sign the release: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__kafka.apache.org_KEYS&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=nnpGYoHO1DAO7pumwuwaTnFfYSJJUaD9230r0tXvtMA&e= * Release artifacts to be voted upon (source and binary): *https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__home.apache.org_-7Eguozhang_kafka-2D1.0.0-2Drc3_&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=htdv00t1c_eD1U0it0rlNQFYSn6iGrnH6eTZFonRrrg&e= < https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__home.apache.org_-7Eguozhang_kafka-2D1.0.0-2Drc3_&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=htdv00t1c_eD1U0it0rlNQFYSn6iGrnH6eTZFonRrrg&e= >* * Maven artifacts to be voted upon: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__repository.apache.org_content_groups_staging_org_apache_kafka_&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=fMHq5kB4xP2FiFgdXT3FYM8ylac9FAr80joIjY4oL-s&e= * Javadoc: *https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__home.apache.org_-7Eguozhang_kafka-2D1.0.0-2Drc3_javadoc_&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=uSCriniP6W-uOqdC4Vo68jNpfXj3NlJ7hAAbNUARH4I&e= < https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__home.apache.org_-7Eguozhang_kafka-2D1.0.0-2Drc3_javadoc_&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=uSCriniP6W-uOqdC4Vo68jNpfXj3NlJ7hAAbNUARH4I&e= >* * Tag to be voted upon (off 1.0 branch) is the 1.0.0-rc2 tag: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__git-2Dwip-2Dus.apache.org_repos_asf-3Fp-3Dkafka.git-3Ba-3Dtag-3Bh-3D7774b0da8ead0d9edd1d4b2f7e1cd743af694112&d=DwIBaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=Q_itwloTQj3_xUKl7Nzswo6KE4Nj-kjJc7uSVcviKUc&m=IXzIAtGVhimjespiK39c6G1WgcbBmQRf7y_fY5znRvE&s=SI2i_RwFsPQyWQAAK_Ts50_pWWJ4XK-XEE5PuhvU96o&e= * Documentation: Note the documentation can't be pushed live due to changes that will not go live until the release.
