   yet


+1 (non-binding) for the release

I do have some feedback so I think we should include in the RC announcement
a link for how the community should test and include information like:

   - How to set up test environment for unit and functional tests
   - Java version(s) needed for the tests
   - Scala version(s) needed for the tests
   - Gradle version needed
   - Sample script for running sanity checks and unit tests
   - Sample Helm Charts for running all the basic components on a Kubernetes
   - Sample Ansible Script for running all the basic components on Virtual
   Machines


It takes a bit of time for newcomers to investigate why the tests are not
running successfully in the beginning and providing guidance for these
categories of contributors will be great. If I did not know where to look
(kafka-2.5.0-src/gradle/dependencies.gradle) it would take longer to figure
out why the tests are not working/running

Thanks.
