That is, what's the earliest zk client version that is supported by > the 3.8.x server? > # We need to ensure there are no regressions (particularly on the stability > front) when it comes to this upgrade. It would be good for someone to stress > test the system a bit with the new version and check if all works well. > [1] [https://zookeeper.apache.org/releases.html] > [2][https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/12620#issuecomment-1409028650] -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
