Current users of ZK 3.4 and below would need to upgrade their Zookeeper
installation that is used by Flink to 3.5+.
Whether K8s users are affected depends on whether they use ZK or not. If
they do, see above, otherwise they are not affected at all.

As far as I understood this upgrade would only affect users that have
a zookeeper shared across multiple services, some of which require ZK
3.4-? A workaround for those users would be to run two ZKs with
different versions, eventually deprecating old ZK, correct?
If that is the only limitation, I'm +1 for the proposal since ZK 3.4
is already EOL.
How are K8s users affected?
Best,
Arvid
