Hello, Ran Eric's test script: $ git clone https://github.com/elalonde/kafka $ ./kafka/bin/verify-kafka-rc.sh 2.4.0 https://home.apache.org/~manikumar/kafka-2.4.0-rc1 <https://home.apache.org/~manikumar/kafka-2.4.0-rc0>
- All PGP signatures are good - All md5, sha1sums and sha512sums pass - Had a few intermittent failures in tests that passed upon rerunning. +1 (non-binding) from me.
